Devils' Sergey Kalinin: Will return Saturday

Kalinin (illness) will slot back into the lineup against the Wild on Saturday, Andrew Gross of The Record reports.

Analysis:

Kalinin has been sidelined since the start of the season, but will be removed from injured reserve prior to puck drop Saturday. The 25-year-old played in 78 games during his rookie campaign and will be looking to improve upon his 15-point tally from last year. The winger figures to start on the Devils' fourth line, but could certainly work his way up the depth chart once he gets his legs back under him.
