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.
