Joey Diamond makes his return after 15 games tonight; looks like Mike Keenan is scratched to make room, with Scooter Vaughan moving back to defense. The forward lines, with Diamond in Vaughan’s place, look more or less how they finished last night.
Oh, and Albany’s in. Because Hartford isn’t, more or less. (Or it just feels like that.) The Devils also have one to scratch and rushed everyone. Edit: It’s Boychuk, so they’ve got seven defensemen in.
