Zub (knee) will be in the lineup against the Islanders on Thursday, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports.
Zub will make his season debut after having last played in an NHL game April 18 in a playoff clash with Toronto. In his 81 regular-season appearances last year, the Russian blueliner notched five goals and a career-high 25 assists, all scored without a power-play role.
