New Jersey Devils leading scorer Jack Hughes is set to miss approximately two months after undergoing surgery to repair a finger injury. The team confirmed on Saturday that Hughes had the procedure at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York.
The surgery was necessitated by a significant finger injury that Hughes sustained during a recent game. With the expected recovery timeline stretching to eight weeks, he will be re-evaluated after this period to assess his condition and readiness to return to the ice.
Hughes has been a vital player for the Devils, contributing greatly to the team’s offensive efforts. His absence is expected to impact the team’s performance as they navigate the upcoming weeks of the season. The Devils will need to adapt their strategies and lineup in light of his recovery.
While the exact timing of his return remains uncertain, the team is optimistic about Hughes’ rehabilitation process. As he begins his recovery, fans and teammates alike will be hopeful for a swift and successful return to form.
