Before the Devils open a season-long six-game home stand, they will make a quick stop in Montreal to play the Canadiens at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday at the Bell Centre. The Devils will be short handed in their top six, with forwards Taylor Hall, Kyle Palmieri and Marcus Johansson all out for Thursday's game.
Here is how the Devils are projected to line up without them. The lines are based on Wednesday's practice rushes, with recently called up forward Nick Lappin slotted into the spot Palmieri occupied on Wednesday.
