Devils' White out again

Devils defenseman Colin White was scratched for tonight's Game 5 due to stiffness in his back. It's the third straight game he's missed.

White, the Devils most physical defenseman, usually shadows opponent's top line. He said earlier today he's feeling better and better, but coach Lou Lamoriello said the six-year veteran goes through certain pre-game exercises - if he passes the test, he plays. If not, he won't.

It's unclear whether White will be available for Sunday's Game 6 at the St. Pete Times Forum (1 pm)
