The Devils coach tests the oilers a few hours before the game

New Jersey coach Lindy Ruff was dropped from the squad after a positive test for Covit-19 ahead of the Devils’ game against the Edmonton Oilers.

The Devils made the announcement on Friday, about 45 minutes after Ruff missed a free-camera press conference. As the conference began, assistant coach Alain Nasredin came in and said he would lead the team.

Nasreddin, who generally manages the game’s security guards, said Ruff would stay at the Prudential Center during the game. He said the two will be in touch during the game.

Ruff, 61, was hired as the Devils coach for the epidemic-abbreviated 2020 season and the team missed the playoffs. New Jersey is currently ranked seventh in the metropolitan area.
