Contributes assist in loss Cotter logged an assist, two shots on goal and nine hits in Tuesday's 5-4 double-overtime loss to the Hurricanes in Game 5.

Impact Cotter ended his nine-game point drought with the helper. The 25-year-old was limited to one assist, five shots on net, 22 hits, three blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over five playoff outings. He's under contract for 2025-26 and is lined up for restricted free agency next summer, so he'll be looking for a big season. Cotter put up 22 points, 90 shots, 245 hits, 62 PIM and a minus-14 rating over 79 regular-season appearances in his first year with the Devils.

Receives two-game suspension The NHL Department of Player Safety issued a two-game suspension to Cotter on Monday for an illegal check to the head against Adam Pelech (upper body) of the Islanders on Sunday.

Impact Cotter will miss the final two games of the regular season, but he will be eligible to return in Game 1 of the playoffs versus Carolina. The 25-year-old forward has 16 goals, 22 points, 90 shots on net, 245 hits and 52 PIM across 79 appearances this season. Nolan Foote, Curtis Lazar or Marc McLaughlin could replace Cotter in the lineup against Boston on Tuesday.

Facing possible suspension Cotter will have a hearing with the NHL Department of Player Safety on Monday for an illegal check to the head of the Islanders' Adam Pelech (upper body) on Sunday.

Impact Cotter received a match penalty in the second period of Sunday's 1-0 loss as a result of his wrongdoing. The 25-year-old has never been suspended in his four-year NHL career, which could help his case. New Jersey has two matchups remaining on its regular-season schedule, and if Cotter receives a suspension, it's unlikely to be for more than two games.

Tallies in Saturday's win Cotter scored a goal in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Wild.

Impact Cotter has three goals over his last 10 games while sticking in the lineup regularly on the fourth line. The 25-year-old has played a larger role at times, but even without Jack Hughes (shoulder), the Devils aren't short on forward depth. Cotter has 16 goals, 22 points, 85 shots on net, 232 hits, 47 PIM and a minus-11 rating through 74 contests in his first season with New Jersey.
