Devils' Michael Cammalleri: Back in lineup Tuesday

Cammalleri will return to the lineup Tuesday to take on the Senators after serving as a healthy scratch for the last two games, Andrew Gross of The Record reports.

Analysis:

While not as productive as he was last season, Cammalleri is by no means having a bad offensive season in 2016-17, with 10 goals and 30 points in 51 games. That said, there is more to the game than recording points for your personal statline. Head coach John Hynes alluded to "other situations" rather than the "end result" being the reason for why Cammalleri has watched the last two games from the press box. Usually when coaches make comments like these, they're referring to a player's play away from the puck. It will be interesting to see if Cammalleri takes his coach's criticism to heart, and if he does, how it will affect his offensive game.
