Based on these lines, it looks like forward Phil Di Giuseppe and defenceman Mark Friedman will be the odd ones out tonight, skating as extras. Meanwhile, it's expected that Thatcher Demko will get the start between the pipes after getting the win in Calgary on Saturday night.
Thomas Drance of The Athletic is reporting that Andrei Kuzmenko is back with the team's first powerplay unit, while Nils Hoglander has been bumped down to the second unit with Linus Karlsson, Filip Hronek, Ilya Mikheyev.
Puck drop for tonight's game against the New Jersey Devils is set for 7 p.m. PT/10 p.m. ET and can be viewed on Sportsnet Pacific in the Vancouver area.
