Devils' Cammalleri back on IR, won't play Tuesday vs. Rangers

The New Jersey Devils announced Monday that forward Mike Cammalleri is dealing with an upper-body injury and has been placed on the injured reserve, retroactive to Jan. 26, meaning he won't play Tuesday against the New York Rangers.

The 33-year-old had just returned from an eight-game absence due to a hand injury suffered Jan. 19, and The Record's Tom Gulitti tweeted that Cammalleri has been regularly icing his right hand after games. Head coach John Hynes told Gulitti the hand had "acted up on him" and it was unclear how much time he would miss.

Cammalleri currently leads his team with 24 assists and 38 points.

The Devils also announced Monday they recalled forwards Joseph Blandisi and Reid Boucher as well as defenseman Seth Helgeson from the AHL's Albany Devils.
