Palat (lower body) will return to action versus St. Louis on Thursday, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
Scouting Report
Does not put up the offensive numbers that he did when he was younger, but has compensated with tremendous improvements in his two-way game. He is a fine playmaker but could stand to shoot a bit more. Is not a physical presence but he does not shy away from contact. Is an excellent complementary winger who can keep up with elite talent.
Long Range Potential: Consistent, two-way winger.
