Ondrej Palat News: Good to go Sunday

Palat (undisclosed) will return to the lineup for Game 1 in Carolina on Sunday, according to Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site.

Palat was hurt blocking a shot against Boston on Tuesday and missed Wednesday's season finale against Detroit. The 34-year-old had 15 goals and 13 helpers over 77 regular-season games. He is expected to see third-line action in the opening round of the playoffs.
