New Jersey Devils' defenseman Simon Nemec sustained an injury during an olympic qualifying game.
The New Jersey Devils have their sights set on winning the Metropolitan Division and returning to the Stanley Cup Playoffs. After a disappointing season last year, the Devils aggressively pursued upgrades on defense and in net. Combining those additions with another year of development for their young core, and the Devils have a recipe for success.
Which is why the Devils are being very cautious with Nemec, as he sustained an injury playing for the Slovakian National Team's olympic qualifying matchups. Tomas Prokop, an international hockey reporter for Dennik Sport, shared news of his initial injury. After being examined by the Slovakian Team's doctor, the prognosis was positive. However, out of abundance of caution and prevention, Slovakia is shutting Nemec down for their upcoming qualifying game against Kazakhstan.
