New Jersey Devils defenseman Dougie Hamilton will miss the remainder of the regular season and 'possibly' the playoffs due to a lower-body injury, general manager Tom Fitzgerald said.
When pressed if Hamilton could return if the Devils reach the second round of the postseason, Fitzgerald wasn't too optimistic on Wednesday.
'We're not planning on it, how's that?' Fitzgerald said during an appearance on the 'Krackin' Canuckleheads' podcast.
Hamilton has been sidelined since he was tangled up with Stars forward Mason Marchment in the first period of a 4-3 loss to Dallas on March 4.
Hamilton, 31, has 40 points (nine goals, 31 assists) in 63 games this season. He is competing in the fourth campaign of his seven-year, $63 million contract.
Hamilton has totaled 501 points (151 goals, 350 assists) in 834 career games with the Boston Bruins, Calgary Flames, Carolina Hurricanes and Devils. He was selected by the Bruins with the ninth overall pick of the 2011 NHL Draft.
