Palmieri (lower-body) will return to the Devils’ lineup on Wednesday.

Palmieri missed Monday’s afternoon game with a lower-body injury that he suffered on Saturday, but will return to the lineup tonight in Toronto. The early emergence of Jesper Bratt is a threat to Palmieri and his minutes, but he will start back on the top-line this evening.

Palmieri (lower-body) will not be in the Devils’ lineup this afternoon.

Palmieri left the Devils season opener after playing just 10:29 TOI and will not be available for this afternoon’s game in Buffalo. With Palmieri out, Jesper Bratt will get an opportunity to play on the Devils’ top line with Taylor Hall and Pavel Zacha.

Palmieri (lower-body) travelled to Buffalo; listed as a game-time decision.

Palmieri recorded two assists in 10:29 TOI in the season opener before departing with a lower-body injury. The 26-year-old winger did travel to Buffalo, so he may not miss any time. Expect John Hynes to address the media around 12:45 pm ET and if Palmieri can’t play, look for Jesper Bratt to take his spot on the top line.

Palmieri (upper-body) will return to the Devils' lineup on Friday.

Palmieri has missed the last two games with an upper-body injury, but will return to the lineup tonight vs. the Red Wings. There is no word who he will replace in the lineup, but he is expected to skate on a line with Michael Cammalleri and Travis Zajac. Palmieri has three goals and four assists (seven points) in 17 games this season.

The Devils signed Kyle Palmieri to a five-year deal worth $23.25 million ($4.65M AAV).

Palmieri 25, had the best season of his career in his first year in New Jersey. He entered 2015-16 with a career-high of 14 goals, but burst out for 30 goals along with 27 assists (57 points) in 82 games. Palmieri should benefit from the Devils adding Taylor Hall to the mix for 2016-17.
