Report: Devils holding Coleman out of lineup as precaution
After trading their captain Sunday afternoon, the New Jersey Devils could be on the verge of dealing one of their best forwards.
The Devils have scratched forward Blake Coleman against the Columbus Blue Jackets for precautionary reasons, according to The Record's Abbey Mastracco.
New Jersey planned to hold Coleman out with trade speculation swirling around the team, reports TSN's Darren Dreger, who adds that the Boston Bruins are among many teams interested in the 28-year-old.
Coleman entered Sunday's action tied with Kyle Palmieri for the team lead with 21 goals this season, one shy of the career high he set in 2018-19 over 21 more games.
New Jersey traded defenseman Andy Greene to the New York Islanders on Sunday afternoon.

Kane received a two-minute minor for elbowing on the play, which came late in the third period. The Sharks managed to kill the penalty and hold on for a 3-2 win.
This marks Kane's fourth career suspension. He received a three-game ban for abuse of an official in the preseason, a one-game punishment for cross-checking in 2018, and he sat two contests for boarding in 2014.

Sabres’ Bogosian assigned to AHL after clearing waivers
Buffalo Sabres defenseman Zach Bogosian cleared waivers Saturday and was assigned to the AHL's Rochester Americans, the team announced.
The 29-year-old has one year remaining on his contract carrying a $5.14-million cap hit, per CapFriendly.
Bogosian was selected third overall by the Atlanta Thrashers in 2008 - one pick after Drew Doughty and one selection before Alex Pietrangelo. Injuries, including multiple hip surgeries, played a part in derailing his career.
He signed a seven-year, $36-million contract with the Winnipeg Jets in 2013 but was traded to Buffalo in a 2015 blockbuster along with Evander Kane and Jason Kasdorf for Tyler Myers, Drew Stafford, Joel Armia, Brendan Lemieux, and a first-round pick (that became Jack Roslovic).
Bogosian has been lost in the shuffle in Buffalo this season, tallying just five points in 19 games. He reportedly requested a trade in December.
