Palmieri (lower body) is unlikely to practice on Monday and is currently day-to-day, Andrew Gross of The Bergen Record reports.

EDGE Analysis

The injury doesn't sound too serious and the Devils are off until Friday against Ottawa, so Palmieri may not miss any action. The 26-year-old winger has seven points in as many games to start the season, including four coming on the man advantage.

Palmieri collected a goal and an assist in the third period of Thursday's 5-4 overtime road win over the Senators.

EDGE Analysis

This was quite the clutch performance from the American winger, as he helped New Jersey erase a 4-2 deficit before teammate John Moore sealed the victory in overtime. Palmieri is clicking offensively with eight points (including three multi-point efforts) through his first six appearances this season.

Palmieri scored a power-play goal and converted in the shootout during Tuesday's 5-4 shootout win over the Lightning.

EDGE Analysis

Palmieri has quietly turned into one of the league's most lethal threats with the extra man, as he already has four power-play points this season after churning out a combined 42 over the previous two campaigns. He was the only shooter to convert in the skills challenge, propelling his team to the win by beating Peter Budaj in the third round.

Palmieri (lower body) will return to New Jersey's lineup for Wednesday's game against the Maple Leafs, Sportsnet's Chris Johnston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Palmieri racked up two assists in 10:29 of ice time in the Devils' season opener before exiting that game due to injury, so he'll look to hit the ground running Wednesday against a Toronto team that's allowing an average of 3.33 goals per game this season. The 26-year-old winger is expected to skate on New Jersey's first line against the Leafs, and he also should see time on the man advantage as a member of his team's second power-play unit.

Palmieri, who's dealing with a lower-body injury, will have his status decided Wednesday, ahead of that evening's road contest versus the Maple Leafs, Andrew Gross of The Bergen Record reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Devils felt that Palmieri was feeling good enough to travel with the team to Buffalo ahead of Monday's game against the Sabres, but the right winger, who broke out for 56 goals and 54 assists over his first couple of seasons in New Jersey, didn't end up suiting up for that contest. He remains day-to-day.

Palmieri (lower body) will not be in the lineup for Monday's clash with Buffalo

EDGE Analysis

Palmieri is with the team on its road trip, so he could still return to action Wednesday against the Maple Leafs. In his first game of the season, the winger garnered a pair of assists, despite logging just 10:29 of ice time in that contest. The 26-year-old's ailment -- combined with that of Drew Stafford (lower body) -- will likely force rookie Jesper Bratt into a first-line role.

Palmieri (lower body) will travel with the Devils to Buffalo ahead of Monday's road game against the Sabres, NJ.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

This is an encouraging development, even though Palmieri wasn't on the ice for practice Sunday. According to this report, the Devils coaching staff will make an official decision on the top-line forward's status Monday morning -- the same goes for Drew Stafford, who also left the game with a lower-body ailment.

Palmieri left Saturday's game against Colorado in the second period after suffering an apparent lower-body injury, Andrew Gross of The Bergen Record reports.

EDGE Analysis

Palmieri sustained the injury when Colorado's Erik Johnson connected with a knee-on-knee hit late in the second period of Saturday's contest. The 26-year-old winger had to be helped off the ice and into the locker room. Coach John Hynes couldn't provide an update on Palmieri's condition after the game, but more information on his condition should be released prior to Monday's matchup with the Sabres.

Palmieri posted a goal and an assist in Thursday's 7-4 loss to the Penguins.

EDGE Analysis

Both points were big for the Devils at the time -- he assisted on John Moore's goal to make it 2-2 at the beginning of the second period, then scored to make it 5-4 as the Devils were trying to mount a comeback at the end of the same frame. Palmieri's 26 goals and 27 assists (with 19 of those points on the power play) amount to helpful fantasy stats, but he notched just a single point in a six-game span prior to Thursday.

Palmieri light the lamp twice in Friday's 6-4 loss against the Penguins.

EDGE Analysis

Palmieri has at least one goal in three straight outings, totaling five markers during the impressive stretch. He is on pace for his best scoring month of the season. Palmieri had a season-high six goals in January and February, and his top point total is 11 points back in December. He is on pace to eclipse both of those marks in March.
