The New Jersey Devils faced an unexpected setback as star center Jack Hughes suffered a hand injury during a team dinner. The incident occurred when Hughes accidentally cut his hand while trying to prepare a meal for his teammates. Head coach Lindy Ruff confirmed the injury but did not provide detailed information about the severity or expected recovery time.

Hughes, who has established himself as one of the key players for the Devils, has been integral to the team's success. His offensive prowess and playmaking abilities have made him a fan favorite and a crucial part of New Jersey's strategy this season.

The team is now left to navigate this challenge as they look to continue their strong performance in the NHL. With Hughes sidelined, other players will need to step up in his absence, highlighting the depth and resilience of the roster. The Devils hope to minimize the impact of this injury as they aim for a competitive position in the league.

As the regular season progresses, fans will undoubtedly be keeping a close eye on Hughes’ recovery and the team's performance without him on the ice.
