Brett Cyrgalis at the New York Post reports that there's a chance Chris Kreider (ankle/bone chip) could be ready to return for tomorrow night's game in New Jersey.
Cyrgalis speculates that Kreider would be inserted onto the third line.
...after the performance of the Hagelin-Stepan-Pyatt line in the Tampa game there's no way Torts is breaking them up. And to be honest, I thought the third line was real solid also, but I can't imagine Torts is going to drop Kreider to the 4th line. Maybe a line of Boyle-Halpern-Kreider? Leaving Ferriero-Asham-Rupp as the fourth line.
...give me your thoughts on possible lines for tomorrow's game in the comments section.
