NEWARK, N.J. -- On Friday evening, the New Jersey Devils announced that forward Erik Haula has been placed on injured reserve retroactive to Jan. 4, 2025. The 34-year-old was injured during the team's game against the San Jose Sharks on Jan. 4.

Forward Erik Haula has been placed on Injured Reserve, retroactive to January 4, 2025, with an ankle sprain, the New Jersey Devils announced on Friday. Haula was injured during the club's game against the San Jose Sharks on January 4.

The New Jersey Devils announced Friday that forward Erik Haula has been placed on Injured Reserve (IR) with an ankle sprain, retroactive to Jan. 4. The team has also recalled defenseman Colton White from their AHL affiliate,

He only has 11 points on the year to match, a far step down from his point totals over the last three seasons.

Haula hasn't played since Jan. 4, so he can be activated whenever he's healthy. Putting him on IR likely had less to do with his timetable and was instead done to enable the corresponding move of Colton White's recall from AHL Utica. Haula has five goals, 11 points, 29 PIM and 67 hits in 42 outings in 2024-25.

Third-line center Erik Haula suffered an ankle injury that will force him to “miss some time,” according to coach Sheldon Keefe on Sunday. Haula got an MRI during the Devils’ practice in Seattle on Sunday ahead of their game with the Kraken on Monday night. Keefe did not provide any other specifics about Haula’s injury.

Head coach Sheldon Keefe said Monday that Haula could miss a few weeks due to a sprained ankle, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports. Haula was absent from Sunday's morning skate due to an ankle injury,

The Boston Bruins completed a trade that sent center Erik Haula to New Jersey, in return for Pavel Zacha. Zacha was quick to make an impact in Boston, the last two seasons he's been a key piece in the lineup, in 2023 he scored 57 total points, and in 2024 59 total points.
