Devils defenseman and captain Andy Greene left Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Carolina Hurricanes after a puck deflected around his left wrist, hand or stick, bouncing toward his face during the first period.

The team said Greene's eye was not the issue, but getting hit by the puck was the reason. He will be evaluated further.

You can watch the sequence below, but again, the Devils said it is not an eye injury.

Greene's appearance on Tuesday marked his 350th straight game. That streak ranks third all time in Devils history. He passed Sergei Brylin at 328 games on Nov. 21, 2016, for the third spot.

Greene has appeared in every game since March 6, 2012, and he trails Ken Daneyko (388) and Travis Zajac (401) for longer consecutive games played streaks in franchise history.

The Devils don't play again until Friday when they host the Toronto Maple Leafs at 7:30 p.m., so Greene will have two days to recover if there are any lingering effects from the hit.
