Siegenthaler (lower body) has been activated from long-term injured reserve and is expected to play in Friday's Game 3 versus the Hurricanes, Mike Morreale of NHL.com reports.
Siegenthaler is projected to suit up on the third pairing after missing 29 games due to the injury. He'll provide a bit of relief for a blue line that has lost Luke Hughes (upper body) and Brenden Dillon (lower body) to injuries already in the first round.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Poised to return Friday
Rotowire
Siegenthaler could suit up against the Hurricanes in Game 3 on Friday after head coach Sheldon Keefe told reporters, "He's feeling good and we're optimistic that he'll play," per Mike Morreale of NHL.com.
Keefe did go on to say that Siegenthaler would likely be deployed "in a reduced role with reduced minutes," but all signs point to the Swiss defenseman playing in Game 3. The last step in the process will be for Siegnthaler to be activated off long-term injured reserve prior to puck drop. With Luke Hughes (upper body) and Brenden Dillon (lower body) both out, getting Siegenthaler back will be a huge boost to the Devils' blue line.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Not expected back in Round 1
Rotowire
Siegenthaler (lower body) isn't expected to play in New Jersey's first-round series against Carolina, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reported Friday.
Siegenthaler missed the final 27 games of the regular season, finishing with two goals, seven assists, 52 shots on net, 92 blocked shots and 75 hits in 55 appearances. Even if the Devils advance to Round 2 of the postseason, it's unclear if the 27-year-old defender will be an option to return to the lineup.
Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Done for regular season
Rotowire
Siegenthaler (lower body) won't play before the end of the regular season, per James Nichols of New Jersey Hockey Now.
Siegenthaler hasn't been in the lineup since Feb. 4 due to the injury. He'll complete 2024-25 with two goals, nine points, 44 PIM, 75 hits and 92 blocks over 55 appearances. It's not clear if there's any hope of Siegenthaler playing in the postseason should the Devils make it that far.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Out for at least 2-3 weeks
Rotowire
Siegenthaler underwent a lower-body procedure during the break for the 4 Nations Face-Off and will be re-evaluated in 2-3 weeks, the Devils announced Tuesday.
Siegenthaler has missed the last two games and moved to injured reserve Tuesday. The Devils recalled blueliners Simon Nemec and Seamus Casey in corresponding moves.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Shifted to IR
Rotowire
Siegenthaler (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.
Siegenthaler has already missed two games due to his undisclosed injury, so he could technically be activated ahead of Saturday's clash with Dallas. Having said that, it seems unlikely the Devils would have made this move if the 27-year-old blueliner was available to play. As such, fantasy players should probably be expecting Siegenthaler to be out against Dallas and Nashville on Saturday and Sunday, respectively.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Still being evaluated
Rotowire
Per Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site, Siegenthaler (undisclosed) will see a specialist to determine the length of time he will be out of the lineup, head coach Sheldon Keefe said Thursday.
Siegenthaler will miss at least the next two games and with the NHL breaking for the 4 Nations Face-Off from Feb.10-21. As such, the Devils have plenty of time to decide upon his timeline for a return. Siegenthaler has two goals, seven assists, 75 hits and 92 blocked shots over 55 appearances this season. The Devils recalled Simon Nemec from AHL to replace Siegenthaler in the lineup.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Will miss time
Rotowire
Siegenthaler (undisclosed) will miss time after sustaining an injury in Tuesday's game versus the Penguins.
This update indicates Siegenthaler can likely be ruled out through the 4 Nations Face-Off break. The 27-year-old defenseman has been a stalwart in his own zone this season. The Devils will need another defenseman on the roster to cover for Siegenthaler's absence.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Hurt in first period Tuesday
Rotowire
Siegenthaler (undisclosed) was hurt in the first period of Tuesday's game versus the Penguins, Sam Kasan of the Devils' official site reports.
Siegenthaler fell awkwardly after receiving a hit and retreated to the locker room. He didn't return at the start of the second or third periods, which suggests he is done for the game despite the lack of an update from the team. The Devils currently aren't rostering an extra defenseman, though Kurtis MacDermid has previously played on the blue line despite being deployed as a forward this year. If Siegenthaler can't play Thursday versus the Golden Knights, the Devils may need to make a roster move.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Finds twine in Tuesday's loss
Rotowire
Siegenthaler scored a goal in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Ducks.
Siegenthaler got the Devils on the board at 5:31 of the third period with an unassisted tally. The 27-year-old has two points over his last three outings, which follows an 18-game slump. He's at two goals, seven assists, 37 shots on net, 59 hits, 71 blocked shots, 32 PIM and a plus-10 rating through 40 contests. He's matched his point total from 57 appearances in 2023-24, but it's unlikely the Swiss blueliner will match his career high of 21 points from the year prior.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Breaks slump with assist
Rotowire
Siegenthaler notched an assist and three blocked shots in Friday's 4-2 win over the Hurricanes.
Siegenthaler had gone 18 games without a point, racking up 37 blocked shots, 22 PIM and 23 hits in that span. The 27-year-old blueliner has looked good in a shutdown role this season, but that lack of offense keeps him out of the picture for most fantasy managers. Overall, he has eight points, 34 shots on net, 32 PIM, 56 hits, 69 blocked shots and a plus-11 rating over 38 outings.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Offense turns cold
Rotowire
Siegenthaler was held off the scoresheet for the 12th straight game in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Maple Leafs.
Siegenthaler is a bottom-four fixture on the blue line for the Devils. The 27-year-old had three points over four games from Nov. 7-12, but he's since gone quiet. The defenseman is at seven points, 28 shots on net, 45 hits and 59 blocked shots over 31 appearances this season.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Scores first of season
Rotowire
Siegenthaler scored a goal on three shots, blocked one shot and had two hits in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Canadiens.
Siegenthaler snuck in from the blue line to fill an open area in front of the net and beat Sam Montembeault to the glove side for New Jersey's third goal. The strike was the defenseman's first in 16 outings and matched his goal total over 57 games in 2023-24.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Dishes two more assists
Rotowire
Siegenthaler notched two assists, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Ducks.
Siegenthaler has three helpers over his last two games. The 27-year-old blueliner led the Devils with 22:27 of ice time Sunday, though that might have occurred because they were protecting a lead and had few power-play opportunities. Siegenthaler is more of a shutdown defenseman, and he's up to four helpers, 12 shots on net, 23 hits, 18 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating through 12 appearances.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Nabs helper Friday
Rotowire
Siegenthaler logged an assist and two PIM in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders.
This was Siegenthaler's first point since the Devils' season opener in Prague. The 27-year-old defenseman doesn't often contribute on offense, and with the Devils' blue line back to full strength, that's likely to remain true. He has two assists, 10 shots on net, 22 hits, 17 blocked shots, six PIM and a plus-2 rating over 11 appearances this season.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Garners assist in opener
Rotowire
Siegenthaler produced an assist, three hits, three blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 4-1 win over the Sabres in Prague.
Siegenthaler is not known for his offense, but he was able to get on the scoresheet in the season opener. The 27-year-old set up a Johnny Kovacevic tally in the first period. In 2023-24, Siegenthaler was limited to nine points, 97 blocked shots, 87 hits and a minus-7 rating over 57 appearances. With a career-high mark of 21 points from 2022-23, his fantasy value is limited to deeper formats where his lofty block totals are rewarded.
Siegenthaler (concussion) will play Tuesday versus the Penguins, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
Siegenthaler has contributed one goal, eight assists, 57 shots on net, 79 blocked shots and 69 hits across 49 appearances this season. His return from a nine-game absence may bump Brendan Smith to the press box.
