Will Adam Larsson and David Schlemko play against Pittsburgh Penguins?
PITTSBURGH — Defensemen Adam Larsson and David Schlemko, who both battled illnesses over the last few days, will be in the Devils' lineup Tuesday night against the Pittsburgh Penguins at Consol Energy Center.
The Devils recalled defenseman Marc-Andre Gragnani from Albany (AHL) as a precaution, but Larsson and Schlemko will both be in the lineup.
"They're good to go," Devils coach John Hynes said.
Larsson joked "this was nothing like having the mumps," which he battled last season.
"A little fever and a bad cold for 24 hours. I'll play," Larsson reported. "It's been around (the team) for a little bit. Luckily I got it during the two days off."
