Stefan Noesen News: Ready to return

Published on October 22, 2025

Noesen (groin) is off the injured non-roster list and is expected to play against Minnesota on Wednesday.

Noesen missed New Jersey's first six games of 2025-26 because of the injury. He had 22 goals, 41 points, 54 PIM and 152 hits in 78 regular-season appearances with the Devils last year. Noesen will likely serve in a middle-six capacity against the Wild, and his return might result in Paul Cotter being a healthy scratch.
