New Jersey Devils defenseman Sami Vatanen did not travel with his teammates to Tampa Bay for Game 5 but has yet to be officially ruled out for Saturday's contest. Vatanen left Game 4 after a hit from Nikita Kucherov and did not return. Though he is considered day-to-day, it would be a surprise to see him play in Game 5. Vatanen only had one point in four games this series but had logged over 20 minutes of time on ice in every game except Game 4. The impact of Vatanen's absence will likely impact the Tampa Bay forwards more than anyone, giving them a more favorable matchup than usual.--Russ Ivanac - RotoBaller
