2024-25 NHL injury tracker: Devils’ Jack Hughes out for season following shoulder surgery

The possibilities of the New Jersey Devils Stanley Cup were a serious blow on Wednesday when the team announced that the star Jack Hughes was made for the season with a shoulder injury. Hughes will undergo surgery and should be ready for the start of the 2025-26 season.

Hughes leads the devils in goals (27) and is tied for team leadership in points (70). Its loss leaves a massive hole in the program of New Jersey and puts the GM Tom Fitzgerald in a link within the trading period. Buying knowing that he will be without his best player the rest of the road, or sell some smaller pieces to collect assets for a summer recharging?

Hughes is not the only star in the Eastern Conference for a while. After injuring their intake in the face of the 4 nations, the Panthers announced that star striker Matthew Tkachuk has been placed in Lir and will probably leave until the Playoffs of the Stanley Cup.

“Matthew will be out of a long period of time. We hope to return it to the playoffs”, Said Bill ZitoAccording to the official website of Jameson Olive of the Panthers.

In addition to Tkachuk, some other teams are treating important injuries to their blue line. The New York Rangers and Nashville Pedators meet with Adam Fox and Roman Josi became struck.

A couple of more defenders, including Charlie McAvoy (Bruins) and Shea Theodore (Golden Knights) still feel the effects of the 4 nations face. MCAVOY has an infection derived from a shoulder injury and Theodore is a week a week with a wrist injury.
