Devils -- The flu bug seems to be running rampant through the team right now, which might explain why forwards Jamie Langenbrunner (one goal in 15 games), Rob Niedermayer (one goal in 21 games) and Jay Pandolfo (no goals in 15 games) are struggling so mightily. Langenbrunner actually sat out the third period of Tuesday's loss to the Leafs, but, according to general manager Lou Lamoriello, is expected to play on Friday. It's still uncertain whether or not Kovalchuk will be in the lineup against Toronto.
Just in case no one has seen this....
Niedermayer and Pandolfo would be scoring at that clip without the flu
