The Game Previews: John's preview from earlier this morning is right here. For the opposition's point of view, feel free to read Kyle Nicolas's post at Anaheim Calling.
The Song for Tonight: "Ballad of queen bee and baby duck" by Eagles of Death Metal. California is a strange place and this is a strange song. Let's try to fit in with the locals shall we?
Gameday Info: New Jersey will be without defensemen Bryce Salvador (foot), Anton Volchenkov (lower body) and Jon Merrill (lacerations) as well as forward Ryane Clowe (concussion). Saku Koivu (concussion) won't play for Anaheim, though he has resumed skating. Right wing Jakob Silfverberg (hand) remains on injured reserve.
The Reminder of Rules: This is a place where you can comment about this game before, during, and after it's played before the recap is up. This is a place where we primarily discuss the Devils game. An odd mention of other NHL games is OK, but it shouldn't dominate discussion. All comments will be clean, respectful of each other, relevant to the game, and legal (read: no streams). Please refrain from super-big pictures and .GIFs to keep the gamethread moving for everyone. If you do post pictures make sure to post a title in the comment. Go Devils.
