The New Jersey Devils will have to wait until training camp to see if Pavel Zacha is ready to make the jump to the NHL club.

The 19-year-old - who was selected sixth overall by the Devils in 2015 - will not skate during the team's summer development camp as a result of a hip pointer.
"I was in the hospital two days ago, had something to do with my hip pointer, and I feel much better today," Zacha told Chris Ryan of NJ.com on Friday. "I got my first little workout in, so I feel really good, so I hope I'll be able to work out and go on the ice pretty soon.
"I'll go on the ice when I go back home, start working out, practicing there, but I won't be able to go on ice this camp."
Zacha made his pro debut late this past season, recording two assists in one appearance for the Devils and a goal and two assists in three games with the AHL's Albany Devils.
