New Jersey Devils head coach Sheldon Keefe confirmed that defensemen Luke Hughes and Brenden Dillon will both not be in the lineup again for the team's Game 4 matchup against the Carolina Hurricanes.

The New Jersey Devils were without defensemen Luke Hughes, Brenden Dillon and Johnathan Kovacevic on Sunday against the Carolina Hurricanes in Game 4 of their first-round

Despite the Devils spending more time in their offensive zone in the second half of the game, the Hurricanes’ hyper-skilled defense rarely bent. The Devils ran out of time, even before Martinook’s goal, and Svechnikov ended the game with an empty net goal with 3:17 left to also secure a hat-trick.
