Hall, Palmieri to return for Devils on Monday

New Jersey Devils left wing Taylor Hall will return to the lineup against the Anaheim Ducks on Monday (7 p.m. ET, MSG+, KCOP-13, NHL.TV) after missing two games with a right knee contusion.
Hall was injured on a knee-on-knee hit with Los Angeles Kings forward Kurtis MacDermid in the third period of a 5-1 win in on Tuesday.

Hall, who leads the Devils with 31 points (11 goals, 20 assists), practiced on a line with center Nico Hischier and right wing Kyle Palmieri on Sunday. Palmieri will return against the Ducks after missing the past 12 games with a broken right foot. He was injured when he blocked a shot in a 4-3 overtime win against the Minnesota Wild on Nov. 20. Palmieri has nine points (four goals, five assists) in 13 games this season.
Forward Marcus Johansson, who has missed three games because of an ankle bruise, also could return Monday. He has seven points (four goals, three assists) in 15 games.
