NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — New Jersey Devils captain Nico Hischier is considered week to week with injury. Coach Sheldon Keefe provided an update on Hischier’s status following his team’s morning skate. Hischier is out for the Devils’ game Wednesday night against Philadelphia and figures to miss Sunday’s at Buffalo, as well. Keefe said team doctors would evaluate Hischier next week and go from there.
