Siegenthaler (concussion) will play Tuesday versus the Penguins, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
Siegenthaler has contributed one goal, eight assists, 57 shots on net, 79 blocked shots and 69 hits across 49 appearances this season. His return from a nine-game absence may bump Brendan Smith to the press box.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Out with concussion
Rotowire
Siegenthaler is expected to miss time with a concussion. Head coach Travis Green told reporters Wednesday, "He'll be out for an extended period of time," per Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site.
Siegenthaler should be considered out indefinitely at this point. With John Marino (upper body) also in doubt, the Devils could be forced to use Nick DeSimone and Santeri Hatakka as their third pairing against the Stars on Thursday.
Siegenthaler (upper body) was injured in Monday's 3-1 loss to the Rangers late in the second period, Dan Rosen of NHL.com reports.
Siegenthaler didn't return to the contest after taking an elbow to the chin from Matt Rempe of the Rangers. An update on Siegenthaler's status should come before Thursday's matchup versus Dallas. Meanwhile, Rempe will have a hearing with the NHL Department of Player Safety on Tuesday for the hit.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Deals helper in win
Rotowire
Siegenthaler notched an assist and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 7-2 win over the Sharks.
The helper was Siegenthaler's first point in five games since he returned from a foot injury. The defenseman has added seven blocked shots while going minus-4 in that span. He's not one to put up much offense, instead offering steady defense most of the time. Siegenthaler has nine points, 48 shots on net, 65 blocked shots, 63 hits and a minus-5 rating through 43 appearances this season.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Available against Caps
Rotowire
Siegenthaler (foot) will be an option versus Washington on Tuesday. Coach Lindy Ruff told reporters, "Available to play, we'll look at getting him back in tomorrow (vs. Washington)," Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
Siegenthaler looks poised to get back into the lineup for the first time since Jan. 6 versus Vancouver, a stretch of 16 games on injured reserve. With just eight points in 38 contests this season, fantasy managers probably shouldn't be banking on the 26-year-old defenseman for offense.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Lands on IR
Rotowire
Siegenthaler (foot) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.
Siegenthaler suffered a broken foot during Saturday's loss to Vancouver, so the Devils putting him on IR makes perfect sense. It wouldn't be surprising to see Siegenthaler sidelined through the All-Star break, which is February 1-3. Cal Foote will likely get the first crack at replacing Siegenthaler in the lineup against Tampa Bay on Thursday.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Suffers broken foot
Rotowire
Siegenthaler broke his foot in Saturday's game versus the Canucks, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
Siegenthaler was injured blocking a shot in the second period. The 26-year-old will reportedly be out for a while, though head coach Lindy Ruff did not offer a specific timeline. The Devils dressed seven defensemen Saturday, but they'll likely need to call-up a reinforcement from AHL Utica prior to Thursday's game against the Lightning.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Nets first goal this season
Rotowire
Siegenthaler scored a goal on a season-high four shots in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Oilers.
Siegenthaler tied the game at 2-2 early in the second period, beating Calvin Pickard with a rising shot through traffic for his first goal of the season. It's the first point in six games for Siegenthaler and just his third in his last 30 contests. The 26-year-old blueliner has averaged 20:22 of ice time in a top-paring role, but he's generally relied on more as a defensive presence. Siegenthaler now has seven points (one goal, six assists) through 30 games this season with 53 blocked shots, 40 hits and a minus-2 rating.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Garners assist in win
Rotowire
Siegenthaler logged an assist in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Kraken.
Siegenthaler has a helper in each of the last two games. He had three assists in the season opener, but he's only been able to match that over the next 23 contests as a more defensive presence in a top-four role. The Swiss blueliner has added 26 shots on net, 28 hits, 41 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating. Siegenthaler should continue to see big minutes, but he's unlikely to reach lofty point totals.
Siegenthaler posted an assist, four hits and three blocked shots in Tuesday's 6-5 win over the Canucks.
Siegenthaler's 26:55 of ice time Tuesday was more than four minutes higher than any other game this season. The 26-year-old rarely chips in much offense, but his defensive presence will be needed with Dougie Hamilton (pectoral) out of the lineup. Siegenthaler has five assists, 26 shots on net, 27 hits, 40 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over 23 appearances.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Offense remains limited
Rotowire
Siegenthaler notched one shot, three blocked shots and one hit in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Flyers.
Siegenthaler has four assists through 21 games this season, and three of those came Opening Night. He's been a solid defensive presence, though, with a plus-1 rating and a consistent role on the penalty kill. Siegenthaler has a bigger impact for the Devils on the ice than he does in most fantasy formats.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Point drought hits eight games
Rotowire
Siegenthaler had two shots on goal in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Wild.
Siegenthaler started the season in style with three assists against Detroit on Opening Night, but he hasn't found the scoresheet in eight subsequent games, and Thursday's two shots tied his season high. If you picked him up hoping the early burst of offense was sustainable, it's probably time to part ways with the Swiss defenseman, whose career high in points is 21.

Devils' Jonas Siegenthaler: Three assists in win
Rotowire
Siegenthaler recorded three assists in Thursday's 4-3 win over Detroit.
It's quite a start to the year for Siegenthaler, who had just one three-point game last season. The 26-year-old blueliner tallied four goals with 17 assists in 80 games last year. While he's not expected to provide this sort of offensive production on a consistent basis, Siegenthaler could offer some upside while skating alongside Dougie Hamilton on New Jersey's top pairing.

Siegenthaler returned to a top-pairing role alongside Dougie Hamilton after serving as a healthy scratch in Game 2. Siegenthaler now has his first two points in the playoffs after tallying four goals and 17 assists in 80 regular-season contests.

Rotowire
Siegenthaler scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Sabres.
Siegenthaler extended New Jersey's lead to 2-0 early in the second period, ripping a slapshot off a rush that got by Devon Levi. It's Siegenthaler's first tally since Feb. 25, a stretch of 20 games, and just his third point in that span. The 25-year-old blueliner still has a career-high four goals and 27 points while sporting a plus-27 rating through 79 games this season.

Rotowire
Siegenthaler scored a goal and added two assists in a 7-0 win over the Flyers on Saturday.
His goal stood as the winner. Early in the second, Miles Wood won the puck behind the Flyers' net and he made a one-handed push pass up the boards to Siegenthaler, who scored on a slapper from the left point. It was Siegenthaler's second NHL three-point game, and he was named the game's first star for his effort. He now has three goals and 15 assists in 58 games this season.
