Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Expected to play
Hamilton (lower body) will return to the lineup Tuesday versus the Lightning,

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Game-time call Tuesday
Hamilton (lower body) will be a game-time decision versus the Lightning on Tuesday, Sam Kasan of the Devils' official site reports.
Hamilton was on the shelf for the Devils' last four contests due to his lower-body issue. In his last seven outings, the 32-year-old blueliner notched three goals and three assists, including four power-play points. If the Toronto native does suit up Tuesday, it figures to be in the top pairing and No. 1 power-play unit, which will likely mean a demotion to the press box for Colton White.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Slated to travel with team
Hamilton (lower body) will travel with the Devils ahead of Tuesday's game in Tampa, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
Hamilton has been unavailable for just over a week due to his lower-body injury, but his return to game action appears to be imminent. The Devils haven't yet indicated whether Hamilton will be available against the Lightning, but even if he's sidelined Tuesday, it wouldn't be surprising to see him in the mix to return Thursday against Florida or Saturday against Philadelphia.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Set for one-week absence
Hamilton (lower body) will be out of action for at least one week, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports Saturday.
Hamilton sustained a minor injury in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over Montreal, and the Devils will give him some time to recover. The 32-year-old defender has four goals, seven points, 35 shots on net, 18 blocked shots and 15 hits through 14 appearances this season. Colton White will replace Hamilton in Saturday's lineup against Pittsburgh.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Still being evaluated
Hamilton (undisclosed) is still undergoing evaluation by the team and is questionable ahead of Saturday's matchup with Pittsburgh, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
Hamilton was forced to exit Thursday's clash with the Habs after logging just 10:09 of ice time, well below his 20:59 season average. If the veteran blueliner does miss any games, it would likely mean more minutes for Luke Hughes, while Colton White would be the top candidate to come into the lineup.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Leaves Thursday's game
Hamilton (undisclosed) did not finish Thursday's game versus the Canadiens and will be evaluated further, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
Hamilton should be considered day-to-day until his status is updated by head coach Sheldon Keefe. The Devils' next game is a matinee versus the Penguins on Saturday. If Hamilton can't play, Colton White is the extra defenseman available to take his place.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Earns two power-play assists
Hamilton registered two power-play assists, four shots on goal, two hits and a minus-2 rating in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Sharks.
Hamilton's offense has spiked over the last week with three goals and three assists across his last four games. The 32-year-old defenseman had a hand in both of Dawson Mercer's tallies Thursday. Hamilton has seven points (four on the power play), 30 shots on net, 16 blocked shots, 14 hits and a plus-2 rating across 11 outings this season. He'll continue to offer plenty of scoring upside in a top-four role with power-play time.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Three-point effort Friday
Hamilton recorded two power-play goals and an even-strength assist in Friday's 3-1 win over the Sharks.
Hamilton ended his six-game point drought, stepping up in Friday's win with two of the team's three goals. He was due for a breakout performance and has racked up 14 shots on net over his last three outings. Hamilton has three goals, 23 shots, 13 blocks and 11 hits through eight appearances this season.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Finds back of net in loss
Hamilton potted a goal on two shots and added three hits in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Hurricanes.
Hamilton netted his team's first goal of the season at 8:15 of the middle frame, which tied the score at 1-1. The veteran defenseman had a team-high five giveaways in this contest, so he'll look to clean up that area of his game ahead of Saturday's road matchup against the Lightning. Hamilton is skating in a top-four role while quarterbacking the No. 2 power-play unit to start the year.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: First point since return
Hamilton registered an assist in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Hurricanes in Game 2.
This was Hamilton's third game back after a long-term, lower-body injury that cost him 18 contests. The 31-year-old has operated in a top-four role during the postseason, adding three shots on net, four hits and a blocked shot over the first two playoff games. He's also on the first power-play unit again, as Luke Hughes (upper body) was unable to play Tuesday. Hamilton is a solid DFS option even as the Devils look a little outmatched in this first-round series.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Ready to return
Hamilton (lower body) will return to the Devils' lineup Wednesday versus Detroit, per Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site.
This will give Hamilton a chance to shake off the rust ahead of the Devils' first-round series against Carolina. Hamilton was last in the lineup March 4 against Dallas. He has nine goals, 40 points, 74 hits and 81 blocks over 63 appearances in 2024-25. The 31-year-old is likely to serve in a top-four capacity and feature on the first power-play unit in his return.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Warming up but won't play Sunday
Hamilton (lower body) will dress for warmups but won't play Sunday against the Islanders, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
It was reported in March that Hamilton would miss the remainder of the regular season and the first round of the playoffs, though it appears that his recovery is ahead of schedule. The 31-year-old blueliner had nine goals and 40 points in 63 games this year before the injury. While it's unlikely the Devils would rush him back in the regular season, Hamilton could be tracking toward an earlier return in the postseason.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Regular season done
Hamilton (lower body) will miss the rest of the regular season and the first round of the postseason, Mike Morreale of NHL.com reports Thursday.
Hamilton's recovery timeline almost certainly factored into the Devils' decision to go out and get Brian Dumoulin at the trade deadline. With Jonas Siegenthaler (lower body) also out the rest of the regular season at least, the Devils will need to rely heavily on Johnny Kovacevic and Simon Nemec.

Hamilton sustained the injury during Tuesday's 4-3 loss to Dallas. He has nine goals and 40 points in 63 appearances in 2024-25. Luke Hughes is likely to serve on the first power-play unit while Hamilton is absent.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Not available for Friday
Hamilton (lower body) will miss Friday's tilt against Winnipeg, Catherine Bogart of the Devils' official site reports.
Devils coach Sheldon Keefe said Thursday that Hamilton's injury is still being evaluated. The veteran Hamilton has nine goals, 31 assists, 74 hits, 81 blocked shots and 182 shots on goal over 63 appearances. Luke Hughes will receive a boost in his fantasy value Friday, as he will take over quarterbacking the Devils' top power play.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Sustains injury Tuesday
Hamilton suffered a lower-body injury in the first period of Tuesday's game versus the Stars and did not finish the contest, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
Hamilton was involved in a collision and got the worst of it, ending his outing prematurely. Head coach Sheldon Keefe did not have an update on the defenseman's status, leaving Hamilton in doubt for Friday's game against the Jets. If he can't play, Seamus Casey will likely draw back into the lineup.

Devils' Dougie Hamilton: Scores, assists Sunday
Hamilton recorded a goal, an assist, a plus-2 rating, six shots on goal, six hits and two blocked shots in Sunday's 5-0 win over the Predators.
Hamilton set up Ondrej Palat's first-period goal and later doubled the team's lead in the second frame to extend his excellent start following the break. He has four points (one goal, three assists) in his last two appearances and extended his point streak to three contests. On the season, the veteran defenseman has racked up 40 points across 59 games, and he's on pace to reach the 50-point mark just for the second time in his career.

Hamilton fired a game-high eight shots, and he delivered two hits and one block in 22:58. He sits tied with Roman Josi for 12th on the NHL defender scoring list with 38 points, one behind Erik Karlsson (39). Hamilton's 169 shots are rank third on that list, behind superstars Zach Werenski (205) and Cale Makar (179). That's impressive company.
