The Devils' morning skate is underway and there is no sign again of defenseman Bryce Salvador, who has missed the last three games with an upper body injury.
Everyone else is present.
The Devils had the last two days off for the NHL's Christmas break. They host the Pittsburgh Penguins tonight.
Scott Clemmensen was the first goalie off the ice at the end of the skate and is expected to start in net again tonight.
The Penguins were scheduled to fly from Pittsburgh to Newark this morning and skate at Prudential Center at 11:30 a.m.

The line combinations this morning (the same as they have been).
Forwards: Zach Parise-Travis Zajac-Jamie Langenbrunner; Patrik Elias-Dainius Zubrus-Brian Gionta; Brian Rolston-Bobby Holik-David Clarkson; Jay Pandolfo-John Madden-Mike Rupp. Sheldon Brookbank (extra forward).
Defensemen: Johnny Oduya-Paul Martin; Colin White-Jay Leach; Andy Greene-Mike Mottau.
Goaltenders: Kevin Weekes, Scott Clemmensen.
It's a bit nuts, they don't give an inkling as to what's wrong with him.
