David Clarkson thinks that the Devils' long break before the start of the playoffs has helped his lower body injury. Clarkson skipped the Devils' season finale due to the injury and the New Jersey-Florida series is the last one to get under way. Due to that, Clarkson has had over a week to heal. "I'm ready to go," Clarkson said. "I'm exited. We've got a great group of guys in here, so it's going to be fun."
