The New Jersey Devils, despite missing star player Jack Hughes, are maintaining a strong position in the Metropolitan Division. However, theyve recently lost two games and are facing a rivalry intensified by a heated postgame altercation with the Blue Jackets. Coach Keefe expressed frustration over several fights, particularly one that injured player Brenden Dillon. Keefe believes Dillon was caught off guard and unwillingly involved, praising him as an honorable player. He also defended another player, Siegenthaler, who was unprepared and received multiple punches before removing his gloves. The teams are set to face off again on New Years Eve, with the Blue Jackets close behind in the standings.
