Jacob Josefson logged nearly 13 minutes of ice time in his return to the lineup from a fractured wrist on Monday night.
His last game took place on April 3rd but he said he "felt good" coming back in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the New York Rangers. "My body felt great. My legs felt really good," said Josefson, who skated between Alexei Ponikarovsky and David Clarkson on the third line. "It was so much to be out there. I've been waiting for this day since I got the injury. It was real nice." He finished the contest with two shots and a plus-1 rating, while winning nine of his 14 faceoffs. Josefson replaced Petr Sykora, who sat as a healthy scratch, in the lineup.
