2 months agoNew Jersey Devils left wing Ondrej Palat (illness) is poised to rejoin the lineup for Saturday's clash against the Montreal Canadiens. Palat did not play on Wednesday against the Boston Bruins due to an illness. However, he practiced on Friday and is expected to be back in action against the Canadiens. Palat will work with Jack Hughes and Paul Cotter on the first line. The Czech veteran boasts 10 goals and 19 points in 48 games for the year. A spot on the first line next to Hughes places Palat in a good position to make an impact on Saturday, but he hasn't increased his points total in four straight appearances.

With Palat out, Kurtis MacDermid will enter the lineup, while Paul Cotter will move to the first line. Cotter impressed with his play early in the campaign but has enjoyed very little offensive success over the last couple of months. The 25-year-old has tallied 10 goals and 16 points in 49 appearances this season.

1 year agoNew Jersey Devils left wing Ondrej Palat missed the morning skate with an illness and will be a game-time decision for Thursday's matchup against Los Angeles. The 32-year-old has struggled to stay in the lineup all season and could be absent again. He recently returned from a lower-body injury. Palat has played well since returning to action, but he can't be happy about his overall contributions. Across 42 outings this season, the veteran winger has tallied only eight goals and 20 points. Chris Tierney filled in for Palat on the top line during the morning skate.
