Henrik Tallinder News

Devils coach Pete DeBoer said center Patrik Elias (flu) and defenseman Henrik Tallinder (back spasms) are both feeling better, but he doesn’t know yet whether either will be available for Friday’s game against Washington.

With Tallinder still not practicing he most likely remains out of the lineup. Expect Matt Taormina or Alexander Urbom to stay in the lineup.

Defenseman Henrik Tallinder had his left wrist wrapped in ice after the game as he was still hurting from a slash from Florida’s Brian Campbell with 2:28 left in overtime. Tallinder said he had not gotten an X-ray on his wrist yet.

Sounds like Tallinder could miss a few games with his wrist injury. Expect Alexander Urbom to draw into the lineup with him sidelined.
