Devils goaltender Jacob Markstrom left the game early last night after Bruins' Justin Brazeau crashed into him, and Sheldon Keefe provided a grim update.

As you know, last March, Kent Hughes traded Jake Allen for a conditional 3rd-round pick, which could become a 2nd-round pick if Allen plays more than 40 games.
