Martin Havlat (facial lacerations) was on the ice for pregame warmups, but doesn't appear to be in the Devils' lineup Saturday against the Capitals, NHL.com's Mike Morreale reports.

Havlat (facial lacerations) was on the ice for pregame warmups but doesn't appear to be in the Devils' lineup Saturday against the Capitals, NHL.com's Mike Morreale reports.

Analysis:

Both Havlat and Damien Brunner were set to take part in the pregame skate, but it was Brunner who participated in line rushes while Havlat did not. It makes sense for the Devils to take a cautious approach with Havlat while he waits for his cuts to heal a little more. He should be ready to play Tuesday against the Rangers.
