The Devils made the announcement Thursday, saying Hughes will not need surgery at this time. He has begun physical therapy. The team didn’t say how long he would be out. Hughes was hurt on Tuesday night in a game against Seattle. He was ridden hard into the boards by Kraken defenseman Jeremy Lauzon and didn’t return.
