Zubrus snapped a 50-game goal drought when he found the net for one of the Devils' two scores in Tuesday's loss to the Wild.
The 36-year-old Zubrus has never provided much in the way of offensive upside, but he's sunk to a new low in 2014-15. He's managed only eight points in 59 games, which has led to a nearly three-minute dip in ice time from a season earlier.

Zubrus recorded an assist in Saturday's win over the Panthers.
The 36-year-old has never been a top-flight scorer, but he seems to be running on fumes at this point. He's produced only two goals and five assists over 42 games, putting him on pace for the lowest point total of his career in any non-lockout season.

Zubrus (leg laceration) skated on his own Friday morning, Tom Gulitti of The Record reports.
Zubrus remains on IR and will again sit out Friday's game against the Lightning, but the team does appear to consider him day-to-day in his recovery. He may need to get in a practice or two with the rest of the team before he's formally activated.

Zubrus (leg laceration) was placed on injured reserve Thursday, Tom Gulitti of The Record reports.
The Devils are still considering Zubrus day-to-day after he was able to skate earlier in the day, but was moved to IR to create some roster flexibility. Since he's already missed the minimum seven days required for an IR stint, he'll be eligible for activation immediately once he becomes healthier.

Zubrus (leg) will not play Monday against the Islanders.
Zubrus still has not entirely recovered from a cut on his leg, so he will miss his fourth straight game Monday night. Consider him questionable for New Jersey's next game Wednesday.

Zubrus (leg) will not play Saturday against the Stars, Tom Gulitti of The Record reports.

Zubrus (leg) will miss Thursday's game against the Flyers, Rich Chere of the Newark Star-Ledger reports.
Zubrus indicated that he was "not quite there yet" with his recovery from the leg injury, so he'll be forced to sit out his second straight contest. A stalwart of the Devils' penalty kill, Zubrus provides more value in real-life terms than in the fantasy arena.

Zubrus (leg) could be available for Wednesday's game against the Flyers.
Zubrus sat out the last game due to a cut on his leg, but he traveled to Philadelphia with his teammates Wednesday, and the Devils removed fellow forward Reid Boucher from the roster, so he may be able to return to action after missing the lone contest.
