Status Report
The Devils did not skate Thursday but will likely use the same skaters from a 5-2 loss to the Colorado Avalanche on Wednesday. … The Golden Knights are also expected to dress the same skaters from their 4-1 victory against the Ottawa Senators on Tuesday. … Hart, a goalie, participated in the morning skate but his status for Friday remains unclear. Olofsson, a forward, also practiced in a noncontact jersey, and coach Ryan Craig said he is hopeful he can join the team for their four-game road trip which begins on Monday.
