NEWARK, N.J. -- The sole point earned in the New Jersey Devils' 4-3 shootout defeat against the San Jose Sharks was little consolation considering the loss of center Jacob Josefson, who suffered a broken right clavicle during the first period.

Josefson underwent surgery Saturday morning, according to multiple media reports. He reportedly will be out three to four months.

The Devils now are without their top two centers. First-line center Travis Zajac suffered a torn Achilles tendon during an offseason workout and is expected to be sidelined until December.
