Kuokkanen (wrist) stayed back in New Jersey when the team left on its three-game road trip, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
Kuokkanen has already been sidelined for the Devils' last 13 contests and will be out for at least three more. Prior to getting hurt, the 23-year-old Finn was mired in a 13-game goal drought during which he registered just 17 shots and four assists. Once cleared to return, Kuokkanen should be in the mix for a bottom-six role.
