Status report

Markstrom, the Devils’ No. 1 goalie, can be shut down for the ultimate three video games of the common season to relaxation and to rehabilitate nagging accidents, coach Sheldon Keefe mentioned Friday. … Gibson is predicted to begin after leaving within the second interval of a 6-3 win in opposition to the Philadelphia Flyers on Thursday due to a stiff neck.
