Hamilton will undergo surgery on his broken jaw Wednesday and has been placed on injured reserve retroactive to Jan. 2.

EDGE Analysis

The Devils have yet to establish an expected timetable for Hamilton's return, so for now, he can be considered out indefinitely. With Hamilton presumably facing an extended absence, look for P.K. Subban to take on an expanded power-play role for the foreseeable future.

Hamilton (face) has returned to New Jersey to be further evaluated by the team's medical staff and won't play against Boston on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Hamilton was hit in the face with a puck during the first period of Saturday's matchup with the Capitals and could be in danger of missing significant time as a result. For at least Tuesday's tilt, Damon Severson figures to move up to the No. 1 power-play unit while Christian Jaros will make just his fourth appearance of the season.

Hamilton (undisclosed) left Sunday's game against Washington and will not return, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hamilton saw just 2:40 of ice time in Sunday's tilt before exiting. An update on his status should be available before Tuesday's tilt with Boston. The 28-year-old blueliner has 20 points through 29 games in his first seasons as a Devil.

Hamilton collected two assists, one on the power play, in Friday's 6-5 overtime win over the Oilers.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran blueliner has had a couple slow stretches in his first season with the Devils, but Hamilton now has five points (one goal, four helpers) in the last five games. On the season, the 28-year-old has racked up seven goals and 20 points through 29 contests.

Hamilton notched a power-play assist, four shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Penguins.

EDGE Analysis

Hamilton set up Nathan Bastian's marker in the third period. The 28-year-old Hamilton has five assists through 10 games in December, a rather cool stretch from one of the league's most talented defensemen. He's at 17 points (five on the power play), 99 shots on net, 43 blocked shots, 36 hits and a minus-9 rating in 27 outings overall.

Hamilton registered two assists and four shots on net in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Wild.

EDGE Analysis

Hamilton set up goals by Ryan Graves and Tomas Tatar in the second period, but that was it for the Devils' offense. The 28-year-old Hamilton is up to six tallies, eight helpers, 72 shots on net and a plus-4 rating in 18 contests this year. The star defenseman has added 34 blocked shots and 27 hits to provide strong all-around production in fantasy.

Hamilton scored a goal on 10 shots, dished an assist, blocked three shots and went plus-2 in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Flyers.

EDGE Analysis

Hamilton showed no hesitation to shooting, racking up nearly 30 percent of the Devils' shots on goal in the game. He struck for the opening tally at 5:07 of the first period and also set up Nathan Bastian's third-period marker. Hamilton has 12 points, 61 shots, 32 blocks, 25 hits and a plus-7 rating in 16 contests this year. He's got a reasonable chance of matching his career-best 50-point campaign from 2016-17 if he can stay steady on offense.

Hamilton's game against Ottawa on Tuesday has been postponed as the Senators go through a COVID-19 outbreak.

EDGE Analysis

The game will be rescheduled to a later date. As a result of this decision by the NHL, Hamilton and the rest of the Devils will be off until Thursday's road tilt in Florida.

Hamilton scored a power-play goal on five shots, blocked three shots and added two hits in Sunday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

Hamilton tied the game at 2-2 at 13:20 of the second period. The defenseman has put up three points in as many games since returning from a lower-body injury. Hamilton has four goals, five helpers, 43 shots on net, 23 blocks and 17 hits in 11 contests -- fantasy managers can comfortably leave him in the lineup as he continues to excel in his first season with the Devils.

Hamilton (lower body) racked up a goal, a power-play assist, five shots and five blocked shots in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Islanders.

EDGE Analysis

Hamilton had missed the previous three games, but his performance in this one suggests the lower-body injury is no longer bothering him. He was a force on both ends and scored the game's final goal with 3:27 remaining to snuff out any faint comeback hopes for the Islanders. The marquee free-agent signing is living up to the hype so far, with three goals and eight points in his first nine games with the Devils.
