New Jersey Devils News

Noesen will "undergo knee surgery next week to address a lingering injury" according to the Devils. Noesen will be placed on IR and is out indefinitely. He enjoyed a breakout 2025 campaign, but has just seven points (3G / 4A) in 38 games this season.

Dylan McIlrath will be a healthy scratch for Washington on Wednesday, allowing Chisholm to re-enter the lineup against the Chicago Blackhawks. The 25-year-old Chisholm has not played since December 23rd. He has three assists in 15 games this season.

The Devils will unsurprisingly turn to Allen between the pipes tonight after Jacob Markstrom was tagged for nine goals in Tuesday's embarrassing loss on Long Island. Allen himself took the loss in his last start, allowing three goals on 29 shots in a 3-1 loss to the Hurricanes on Sunday. The 35-year-old netminder is enjoying another successful season as New Jersey's backup, logging an 11-9-1 record and a .911 SV% across 22 appearances. Allen and the Devils enter action on Thursday at -105 on the money line.

Ilya Sorokin returned from a two-week absence due to an injury in the Islanders' most recent game, recording a shutout in a 9-0 win over the New Jersey Devils, but the team will turn to Rittich on Thursday against the Nashville Predators. The 33-year-old Rittich has been excellent over the last two months, posting a solid 2.25 GAA and .916 SV% in 13 games (8-3-2). The Islanders enter the action on Thursday as slight +108 road underdogs against a Predators team coming off a 6-2 loss to the Edmonton Oilers.
