Devils' Curtis Lazar: Leaves Sunday's game
Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports that Lazar (lower body) will miss some time after exiting Sunday's game versus the Ducks.
Lazar was not able to put any weight on his right leg after a collision in the second period of Sunday's win. It's unclear how long Lazar will be out for, but an update will likely come after he is evaluated. The right-shot forward has produced two points through 12 outings this season. Nathan Bastian will be a candidate to replace Lazar in the lineup.

Devils' Curtis Lazar: Finds twine Friday
Lazar scored a goal and added three hits in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders.
Lazar has earned two points over his last three games, accounting for all of his offense this season. The fourth-liner tied the game at 2-2 with his tally 5:31 into the second period Friday. Lazar has added eight shots on net, 34 hits, four PIM and a minus-1 rating through 11 appearances. His spot in the lineup looks secure for now, but his inconsistent offense is not something most fantasy managers will benefit from, though he is on track for the first 200-hit season of his career.

Devils' Curtis Lazar: Creates helper in loss
Lazar logged an assist and six hits in Tuesday's 8-5 loss to the Lightning.
Lazar got on the scoresheet when he set up linemate Nathan Bastian's third-period tally. The 29-year-old Lazar looks to be cemented in a fourth-line role, and the bulk of his statistical production will come from hits. Through nine contests, he has a helper, six shots on net, 26 hits and four PIM while averaging 11:22 of ice time.

Devils' Curtis Lazar: Practicing Thursday
Lazar (upper body) is healthy at training camp Thursday, according to Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site.
Lazar is expected to be a fourth-line winger with the Devils. He had the best offensive season in his career in 2023-24, scoring seven goals and adding 18 assists in 71 games, as New Jersey failed to make the playoffs. Look for a 20-25 point season from Lazar in 2024-25.

Devils' Curtis Lazar: Not playing Sunday
Lazar (upper body) will not be available Sunday against Nashville and could miss extended time, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
Lazar was injured Saturday against the Senators and logged just 6:38 of ice time with three hits and one shot. The 29-year-old has tallied seven goals and 25 points through 71 contests this season. It sounds like he'll miss at least a few games and is "likely" out for the remainder of the regular season. The team should have a clearer outlook on his status in the coming days.

Devils' Curtis Lazar: Three-point burst in win
Novak provided three assists, including an empty-net helper, in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Maple Leafs.
After missing the last game with a lower-body injury, Lazar returned to his regular spot on the wing on the fourth line being centered by Chris Tierney. Although he only played 9:19 of ice time, Lazar produced a three-point game, his first of the season. He also finished with four hits and a plus-3 rating. The 29-year-old winger only has 24 points on the year and with his limited ice time, he is hard to trust as a fantasy starter.

Lazar (lower body) is expected to return to the lineup Tuesday versus the Maple Leafs, per Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site.
Lazar is projected to skate on the fourth line versus Toronto following a one-game absence. In 64 appearances this season, the 29-year-old forward has six goals, 21 points and 168 hits.

Devils' Curtis Lazar: Goal drought hits 23 games
Lazar's goal drought extended to 23 games as he finished with one shot and two hits in Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Golden Knights.
Lazar hasn't found the back of the net since a two-goal outburst against the Golden Knights on Jan. 22, and a rematch with Vegas didn't alleviate his scoring woes. He came into this game with a helper in each of his previous two outings, but that modest point streak came to a close Sunday and was preceded by 11 games without a point. Overall, Lazar has just six goals and 21 points in 63 appearances.

Devils' Curtis Lazar: Puts up helper
Lazar posted an assist, four shots on goal and two hits in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Predators.
Lazar snapped a six-game slump with the primary assist on Timo Meier's go-ahead goal in the third period. Lazar has regularly served as the third-line center lately, though it hasn't translated to improved performances on offense. The 29-year-old has 17 points, 49 shots on net, 113 hits and a plus-13 rating through 47 appearances, putting him on track for a career year.

Devils' Curtis Lazar: Good for two goals in overtime win
Lazar scored two goals in Monday's 6-5 overtime win against the Golden Knights.
Lazar buried both of his shot attempts, and he finished with a plus-2 rating as well as a blocked shot in 12:53 of ice time across 20 shifts. It wasn't all great, as he lost all three of his faceoff chances, but fantasy managers aren't likely complaining too vehemently. He snapped a 21-game goal drought dating back to Nov. 28, although he does have a respectable six points in 10 appearances in January.

Devils' Curtis Lazar: Good to play Wednesday
Lazar (lower body) is available for Wednesday's game against Washington, according to Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site.
Lazar is drawing back into the lineup after missing three straight games. He has four goals, 10 points, 57 hits and 25 blocks in 30 outings with New Jersey in 2023-24. Lazar's return is particularly timely because coach Lindy Ruff suggested some of New Jersey's forwards are questionable for Wednesday's contest, though he didn't specify who specifically might miss the game.

Devils' Curtis Lazar: Game-time decision Friday
Lazar (undisclosed) is expected to be a game-time decision Friday in Ottawa, according to Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site.
Lazar sat out Wednesday against Columbus as he was "banged up" according to coach Lindy Ruff. Ruff said that he will see how Lazar is feeling after the morning skate, which will determine whether or not the winger will return to the lineup Friday.

Devils' Curtis Lazar: Is day-to-day
Lazar, who is banged up, is expected to miss Wednesday's game against Columbus and will be regarded as day-to-day beyond that, coach Lindy Ruff told Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site.
Lazar has four goals, 10 points, 16 PIM, 57 hits and 25 blocks in 30 outings this year. He's not expected to be out for long, so perhaps Lazar will even be an option Friday versus Ottawa. In the meantime, defenseman Brendan Smith might serve as a forward Wednesday.

Devils' Curtis Lazar: Nabs helper
Lazar posted an assist in Tuesday's 6-5 win over the Canucks.

The 28-year-old has eight points, 22 shots on net, 47 hits, 19 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating through 21 appearances. Lazar could challenge his career high of 20 points from 2015-16 if he remains a regular in the lineup.

Devils' Curtis Lazar: Pots GWG against Isles
Lazar scored the game-winning goal and added an assist in Tuesday's 5-4 victory over the Islanders.
The 28-year-old journeyman tapped a rebound past Ilya Sorokin with just 23 seconds left in regulation to complete a comeback from a 4-2 deficit. Lazar is playing for his sixth NHL team in 10 seasons, but he could be headed for a career-best campaign in New Jersey with four goals and seven points through 18 games -- he's never scored more than eight goals (set in 2021-22 with Boston) or 20 points (set in 2015-16 with Ottawa) before.
