Saad (illness) will be back in the lineup Friday against Tampa Bay.
Saad sat out Wednesday's tilt versus the Sabres, but he'll return to the top line with Vladimir Tarasenko and Ryan O'Reilly against the Lightning. It has been a tough season for Saad, who has only three goals in 12 games after a 24-goal, 49-point season in 78 games last year.
