Top Nico Hischier News

  • Devils' Nico Hischier: Point-per-game pace so far

    Hischier bagged three apples Thursday in a 6-2 win over Florida.

    Two of the assists came on the power play. He also had three shots and one hit on the night. Hischier has four assists in his last two games after putting up a single helper over his previous five games. He has 20 points, including 10 goals, in 20 games this season, but he has gone nine games without padding that category. Hischier's best season came in 2022-23 when he fired 31 goals and put up 80 points, 256 shots and a plus-33 rating. He's well on his way to equaling that total.

  • Devils' Nico Hischier: Delivers assist in win

    Hischier posted an assist and two shots on goal in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Panthers.

    Hischier shot a remarkable 22.7 percent during a 10-goal, 15-point October, but his luck has dried up. He's 0-for-8 on shots over six games in November, adding two assists. While he's at 17 points, 52 shots on net, 17 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating over 19 contests, he will need to find a bit more consistency moving forward, which shouldn't be too tough to do in a top-six role.

  • Devils' Nico Hischier: Supplies power-play helper

    Hischier notched a power-play assist in Monday's 3-0 win over the Oilers.

    The helper allowed Hischier to avoid being held off the scoresheet in consecutive games. The 25-year-old center has been consistent this season, earning 10 goals, six helpers, six power-play points, 46 shots on net, 15 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating over 15 outings. While his 21.7 shooting percentage is likely to come down, Hischier should still offer strong offense as an all-situations center in the top six of a high-scoring team (3.53 goals per game).

  • Devils' Nico Hischier: Three points in Wednesday's win

    Hischier scored a goal on two shots, added two assists, blocked three shots and went plus-3 in Wednesday's 6-0 win over the Canucks.

    Hischier set the tone just 53 seconds into the contest with the opening goal. He also set up second-period tallies by Dawson Mercer (shorthanded) and Timo Meier as the Devils ran away with the win. Hischier has five goals and two helpers during his active four-game point streak. The center's talent was already well regarded, but he's taking things to another level in 2024-25 with 10 goals, five assists, 44 shots on net, 12 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating through 13 contests. The 25-year-old has yet to finish at or above a point-per-game pace in a full season, coming close with 80 points in 81 games in 2022-23.

  • Devils' Nico Hischier: Leading league in goals

    Hischier scored a goal on three shots and went plus-2 in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Ducks.

    Hischier tallied early in the third period, stretching the Devils' lead to 5-1. The 25-year-old center now leads the NHL with nine goals this season, one ahead of Nikita Kucherov and Cole Caufield. Hischier has scored four times over his last three games, and he's up to 12 points, 42 shots on net and a plus-4 rating through 12 contests.

  • Devils' Nico Hischier: Lights lamp again

    Hischier scored a goal on three shots and blocked two shots in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders.

    Hischier took a share of the NHL goals lead with his eighth tally of the season. He's been particularly good lately with five goals and a helper over his last four games. The two-way center has 11 points, 39 shots on net, nine blocked shots and a plus-2 rating through 11 contests overall. Hischier will continue to see top-six minutes and ample power-play time as one of the Devils' most reliable forwards.

  • Devils' Nico Hischier: Pair of markers Thursday

    Hischier found the back of the net twice on eight shots en route to a 5-3 loss to Detroit.

    Both of Hischier's tallies came on the man advantage, but it wasn't enough to propel the Devils to victory. Hischier has been highly productive over his last three games, as he's buried four goals on 16 shots in addition to registering an assist. The left-shot center has banked three assists and 10 points in as many games while filling a top-six role and spot on the No. 1 power-play unit to start the 2024-25 campaign. Hischier leads New Jersey in goals with seven.

  • Devils' Nico Hischier: Excels in loss to Capitals

    Hischier recorded two goals and one assist in Saturday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Capitals.

    Hischier bounced back after going pointless in the 3-1 win over the Senators on Thursday with his first multi-point effort -- and his first two-goal outing -- of the season. The center is up to eight points across eight appearances in 2024-25, and he shouldn't have problems hitting the 60-point plateau for the fourth consecutive season as long as he stays healthy.

  • Devils' Nico Hischier: Three-game, four-point streak

    Hischier scored a power-play goal in a 4-2 loss to Carolina on Tuesday.

    Hischier extended his point streak to three games (two goals, two assists) with the goal, which came on a 5-on-3 power play late in the third period. Hischier is focused on taking another step forward in output this season after slipping back from 80 to 67 points last season. Three of his points have come with the man advantage.

  • Devils' Nico Hischier: Two-point effort in win

    Hischier produced a goal and an assist, both on the power play, in Monday's 3-0 win over Utah.

    The 25-year-old center helped set up Seamus Casey for what proved to be the game-winner early in the second period, and Hischier then capped the scoring with his own third-period tally. Hischier has two goals and four points through five games to begin the season as he looks to reach the 60-point plateau for the fourth straight campaign.

  • Devils' Nico Hischier: Plucks apple in win

    Hischier logged an assist and three shots on goal in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Capitals.

    The helper was Hischier's first point since his goal versus the Sabres on Oct. 4. The center has added 10 shots on net, three blocked shots and two hits through four appearances. Hischier can do better on offense, but he's also a strong defensive center, and that may occasionally hinder his scoring contributions. Nonetheless, he's locked into a top-six role.

  • Devils' Nico Hischier: Scores Opening Night goal

    Hischier scored a goal on four shots in Friday's 4-1 Opening Night victory against Buffalo.

    Hischier has reached the 60-point threshold in each of his previous three campaigns and looks poised to do more of the same in 2024-25. Given his role with the No. 1 power-play unit, the Swiss center should be capable of getting back over the 30-goal mark this year after coming just three tallies shy last season.

  • Devils' Nico Hischier: Takes step back with 67-point year

    Hischier provided an assist in Monday's 4-1 loss to the Islanders, wrapping up the 2023-24 season with 27 goals and 67 points in 71 appearances.

    Hischier posted his second-highest point total and appeared in the third-most games of his seven-year career, but this season has to be viewed as a disappointment on the heels of his 80-point output in 2022-23. The first overall pick in the 2017 NHL Entry Draft also took a significant step back defensively, with his rating dropping from plus-33 last season to minus-5 as the Devils missed the postseason in 2023-24.

  • Devils' Nico Hischier: Strong play continues

    Hischier scored a goal and added an assist in a 5-2 loss to Toronto on Tuesday.

    Hischier split the Leafs' defense and beat netminder Joseph Woll with a backhand in the first to knot the game 1-1. His assist came on the power play. Hischier has points in six of his last seven games (four goals, six assists) and 65 (27 goals, 38 assists) in 68 contests on the season. While he hasn't replicated his 80 points in 81 games from last year, there has been growth in Hischier's game. He is just four goals from his career mark (31) which was set last season. Additionally, his face-off percentage has ticked up to 56.9, which suggests improved diligence at the dot. The Devils are out of playoff contention, but it's not been because of Hischier.

  • Devils' Nico Hischier: Provides assist in loss

    Hischier put up an assist and went minus-3 in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Sabres.

    Hischier concludes a productive March with four goals and 12 helpers over 15 contests. The center is up to 59 points, 167 shots on net and a plus-1 rating through 63 outings overall. He needs just one more point to reach 60 for the third year in a row, but he'll almost certainly fall short of matching his 31-goal, 80-point campaign from 2022-23.

  • Devils' Nico Hischier: Three points in win

    Hischier scored a goal and dished two assists in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Maple Leafs.

    Hischier scored his 24th goal of the season in the first period and added two helpers to contribute to half of New Jersey's goals on the night. It was the 15th multi-point game for Hischier and the fifth time he produced three points or more in a game. Although he may not surpass his career-high of 80 points from last season, Hischier is a consistent point-per-game player at this point in his career.

  • Devils' Nico Hischier: Twenty points in last 17 games

    Hischier had a goal and two assists in a 4-1 win over the Jets on Thursday.

    His goal stood as the winner. Hischier redirected a shot in the slot with three seconds left on a power play in the third period. He has 20 points (seven goals, 13 assists) and 62 shots in his last 17 games. Hischier's pace is a bit slower than last season when he popped in 31 goals and 80 points in 81 games. But he's on a solid run heading into the last weeks of the season.
