The NHL has announced that due to “COVID-related issues affecting the Devils” Tuesday’s game at PPG Paints Arena has been postponed.

A make-up date has yet to be announced.

It was announced on Sunday that the Devils game scheduled for Thursday against the Montreal Canadiens will be postponed due to the NHL postponing all games between an American-based team and a Canadian-based team from December 20-23, when the NHL holiday break begins.

The Penguins beat the Devils 3-2 in New Jersey on Sunday night.

The team will now hold a practice at the UPMC Lemieux Sports Complex on Tuesday morning.

The Penguins next game is Thursday at home against the Philadelphia Flyers. The Pens are riding a seven game winning streak.
