Nico Hischier Ruled Out for Rest of World Championships

New Jersey Devils center Nico Hischier (lower body) will sit out the rest of the 2025 World Championships. The Swiss hockey federation announced that Hischier will miss the remainder of the tournament after sustaining a muscular injury in Switzerland's game against Germany on Thursday. Hischier, who captained the Swiss team, played four games in the tournament, recording two goals and three points. The Devils described his absence for the remainder of the tournament as "precautionary," suggesting there is no concern about his health for the start of the 2025-26 NHL campaign. This season, Hischier recorded a career-high 35 goals while totaling 69 points in 75 games.

Nico Hischier Resting Wednesday Night

New Jersey Devils center Nico Hischier (rest) will not play in Wednesday's regular-season finale against the Detroit Red Wings. The Devils captain will take the night off to rest a bit before the playoffs start. Hischier wraps up the 2024-25 campaign with a career-high 35 goals and 69 points in 75 appearances. He managed to get to the 30-goal plateau for the second time in his career. However, Hischier has scored in only one of his five April appearances, so he needs to find his shooting stick again if the team is going to be successful in the postseason. Dawson Mercer and Cody Glass should receive a bump in usage on Wednesday with Hischier out.

Nico Hischier Returns To Devils Lineup Saturday

New Jersey Devils center Nico Hischier (upper body) has been activated from Injured Reserve ahead of Saturday's game against the Dallas Stars. The Swiss forward is ready to return to action after a six-game absence. Justin Dowling will vacate a spot in the lineup for Hischier, who will reclaim a top-six spot. He is set to skate with Timo Meier and Stefan Noesen. Fantasy managers have received inconsistent production from Hischier since the turn of the year, but he has had a solid campaign overall. Hischier is tied for the top spot on the Devils team with 24 goals and sits on 43 points with 51 games played.

Nico Hischier Targeting Saturday Return

New Jersey Devils center Nico Hischier (upper body) is hoping to return on Saturday to face the Dallas Stars. Hischier was able to practice on Tuesday and will continue to be monitored leading up to Saturday's contest. Hischier has been on the injured reserve and missed their previous six games. Before the injury, Hischier was enjoying a nice offensive surge as he tallied seven points (five goals, two helpers) over his last six games. Overall, Hischier has tallied 43 points (24 goals, 19 assists) across 51 games, and 18 of them have come on the power-play. He has also averaged .91 blocked shots per game. When he is cleared for action, the 26-year-old will likely return to his role on the second unit and play alongside Timo Meier and Dawson Mercer.

Nico Hischier Labeled As Week-To-Week With Injury

According to head coach Sheldon Keefe, New Jersey Devils center Nico Hischier (upper body) is considered week-to-week. Keefe noted that the team will check in on his status at the end of the week. As a result, fantasy managers should expect Hischier to miss at least their game against the Flyers on Wednesday and their contest against the Sabres on Sunday. The captain sustained this injury during their contest against the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday evening. Over his last seven games, Hischier saw his offensive production improve as he tallied seven points (five goals, two helpers) while averaging three shots on goal per game. Overall, Hischier has found the back of the net 24 times and added 19 assists across 51 games. While sidelined, Dawson Mercer will likely continue to take over the No.2 center role.

Nico Hischier Out On Monday

New Jersey Devils center Nico Hischier (undisclosed) has been ruled out for Monday's clash against the Philadelphia Flyers. He was injured on Saturday against the Montreal Canadiens and is forced to skip his first contest of the season. Hischier has had a fine campaign with a team-high 24 goals and 43 points through 51 appearances. New Jersey will replace Hischier with Dawson Mercer as the second-line center on Monday. A top-six role boosts Mercer's fantasy value, although he has struggled to produce consistent offense throughout the season and has only added to his points total in two of his last 13 appearances.

Nico Hischier Labeled As Day-To-Day Following Saturday's Exit

According to head coach Sheldon Keefe, New Jersey Devils center Nico Hischier (undisclosed) is viewed as "day-to-day" following his early exit during Saturday's contest. Hischier sustained this injury during the third period. Before exiting, the captain scored his 24th goal of the season in the opening frame. He logged two hits and three shots on goal. Fantasy managers should continue to keep a close eye on his status leading up to Monday's contest against the Philadelphia Flyers. Entering Saturday, Hischier tallied six points over his previous five (four goals, two helpers) with a -3 rating. Overall, the 26-year-old has tallied 43 points over 51 contests. If he were to miss time, fantasy managers should expect Justin Dowling to be a candidate to move up to the second-line center role.

Nico Hischier Powers New Jersey To Victory

New Jersey Devils center Nico Hischier led the way with three points during their victory on Wednesday evening against the Boston Bruins. In the second frame, Hischier would tally two power-play helpers, one on Dougie Hamilton's goal and the other on Stefan Noesen. In the final period, Hischier would find the back of the net on the man advantage for his third power-play point of the evening. He added three shots on goal and a blocked shot. This performance snapped a two-game scoreless stretch for Hischier. Since the start of the month, Hischier has tallied eight points (five goals, three helpers), with six of them coming on the power-play across 10 contests. Overall, he has tallied 42 points across 50 contests. Fantasy managers should expect him to continue this steady production playing on the second unit in the New Jersey offense.

Nico Hischier Busy In Saturday's Victory

New Jersey Devils center Nico Hischier tallied three points during their 3-0 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday evening. Hischier tallied the primary assist on Stefan Noesen's opening goal which eventually served as the game-winner. Hischier than beat Tristan Jarry in the third period to extend their lead and would then tack on secondary assist on Timo Meier's empty-net goal. This was a much-needed breakout performance for captain as he has tallied just two points over his previous eight contest entering Saturday. This was his first multi-point outing since November 29. The 25-year-old will look to stay hot on Monday afternoon against the New York Rangers.

Nico Hischier Nets Historic Hat Trick Versus Predators

New Jersey Devils center Nico Hischier lit the lamp three times in Monday's 5-2 victory over Nashville, becoming the first Swiss player in NHL history to post a natural hat trick. He achieved the feat in the second period, sticking a power-play goal between two even-strength markers. This was Hischier's second three-point effort in five games. He's found his feet again after slumping through the first couple of weeks this month. Despite the recent barren spell, Hischier boasts strong offensive numbers for the campaign, with 13 goals and 11 assists registered across 24 outings.

Nico Hischier Collects Two Assists Versus Avalanche

New Jersey Devils center Nico Hischier had his second consecutive multi-assist game on Tuesday, helping the team defeat the Colorado Avalanche 5-3. The Swiss centerman helped to set up Jesper Bratt and John Marino, with the latter bagging the game-winning goal. Hischier also put in a major shift on the defensive end with four blocks. He had 11 of his 30 points in January, and it looks like Hischier doesn't plan to slow down in February, either. He's notched 13 goals and 17 assists in 37 games for the season.

Nico Hischier Scores Twice In Victory

The 24-year-old extended his point streak to three consecutive games, while picking up at least one point in six of the past seven games.

Nico Hischier Returns To Practice Monday

New Jersey Devils center Nico Hischier returned to practice on Monday for the first time since suffering an upper-body injury on Oct. 27 in a game against the Buffalo Sabres. Hischier took a hit to the head from Sabres defenseman Connor Clifton who was subsequently handed a two-game suspension. The Swiss center has since missed the last nine games. "We hope to see him again at practice tomorrow but I don't really have a timeline... we'll see how practice goes," Devils head coach Lindy Ruff said. It was a slow start to the season for Hischier who set career-highs with 31 goals and 80 points last season. He notched two goals for his lone points through seven games while his 16:50 of average ice time is well below his 19:17 mark from a season ago.

Nico Hischier Not Expected To Join Team For Road Trip

New Jersey Devils center Nico Hischier (upper body) is facing a multi-game absence, with general manager Tom Fitzgerald suggesting he won't join the team for an upcoming four-game road trip. According to James Nichols of New Jersey Hockey Now, Fitzgerald "doesn't anticipate" Hischier making the eight-day trip that starts Thursday in Minnesota. Hischier has already been out for one game after getting injured in a contest against Buffalo last week. Michael McLeod joined the top six in Hischer's absence in Sunday's 4-3 win against the Wild.

Nico Hischier Ruled Out For Sunday

New Jersey Devils center Nico Hischier (upper body) has been ruled out for Sunday's clash with the Wild. He was injured Friday against Buffalo on a high hit from Sabres defenseman Connor Clifton. Things have gone horribly for Hischier so far this season, and this is another setback for him. Through seven games, the star centerman has recorded only two points. Dawson Mercer will likely replace Hischier in the top six on Sunday, while veteran Chris Tierney should get a chance to play his second game of the season.

Nico Hischier Good To Go Tuesday

New Jersey Devils center Nico Hischier (upper body) is expected to play Tuesday versus Montreal. The star centerman was back in practice Monday and appears to have avoided any setbacks. Hischier was injured last Friday in a contest against the Islanders. Hopefully, he can kickstart his campaign as well now after going scoreless through the first four games of the season. Devils head coach Lindy Ruff also expects to have Erik Haula (upper body) available again on Tuesday. The left wing missed the Islanders game.

Nico Hischier Expected To Practice On Monday

New Jersey Devils center Nico Hischier (upper body) appears to have avoided serious injury in Friday's clash with the Islanders. Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman has reported that Hischier will be good to go for Monday's practice. It's been a rocky ride for Hischier so far this season, as he has gone without a point in all four of his appearances. If he comes Monday's practice through with no issues, Hischier will try to avoid a five-game scoring slump on Tuesday against Montreal.

Nico Hischier Continues Assist Streak

New Jersey Devils center Nico Hischier remains without a goal in the 2023 Stanley Cup Playoffs, but he tallied an assist in a fourth consecutive game Saturday against the Rangers. The Swiss star had a power-play helper on a late Dawson Mercer goal. Hischier and the Devils blew a chance to finish off their neighbors Saturday, but they will get Game 7 on home ice, which should be a big advantage for the team. And maybe Hischier has been saving his goals for the crucial moments. He has fired blanks so far with 19 attempts on the net.
