Nico left last game early and looked like his wrist was bothering him quite a bit. He has already been ruled out for today but no update has been provided.

Definitely not a good sign-- he played all last season with a wrist problem and spent a month in a cast this offseason to heal up and avoid surgery. Logic says that if it was hurt further, surgery is what a Dr may recommend to correct the issue.

The lack of update from the Devils is also concerning. Hopefully it's nothing serious... the Devils look to be going from playoff bubble team to Hughes contender rather quickly and losing Nico certainly won't help.
