Coach Lindy Ruff believes the Devils will be without their star forward for their game against the Red Wings.
Devils coach Lindy Ruff “does not anticipate” that forward Timo Meier will travel with the team to Detroit on Wednesday.
Meier, who was injured along the boards in last Tuesday’s 6-3 loss to the Winnipeg Jets, has missed the last two games and practices due to a lower-body injury but will be out “short term,” according to Ruff.
