On the Beat: Patrice Bergeron returns tonight

What team beat writers are saying early this afternoon:

• The lines from Bruins practice this morning.  Nice to see Bergeron in there.  He’s now been cleared to play.
• Are the Stars going to trade for a defenseman?  Are there going to be any trades period?
• The Devils don’t play the game like they used to, says coach Brent Sutter.  Better for the fans.
• Here are New Jersey’s lines from practice.  Parise back from Montreal.
• Cal Clutterbuck is awfully impressed by John Tavares.  It really is an insane amount of goals.
• The Rangers lines from practice today.  They could use another scoring forward.
• Wayne Gretzky loves Shane Doan.  Pencil him in for 2010.
• An interview with Penguins forward Petr Sykora.  Interesting.
• Notes and quotes from around the Capitals.  Poti questionable for tonight.  He always seems to be questionable doesn’t he?
