Devils forward Ryane Clowe played his first game Friday night since suffering a concussion Oct. 13 and didn't score any points. But he had four hits and a blocked shot in the Devils' 2-1 shootout loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets. "I felt good," Clowe said. "Obviously the first couple of shifts were on adrenalin and excitement. After the first shift I didn't know if my legs were going to seize up. I was sitting on the bench. Lucky I didn't get out there for another 10 minutes, so I had time to recover. In the first period I felt like I missed 30 games, but in the second I felt really good. I started to have a little bit of jump." Coach Pete DeBoer on Clowe: "I thought he was one of our best forwards. I thought he gave us some good energy and he was physical. He did a great job." Clowe said he isn't sure if he'll play against the Islanders tonight because of the back-to-back games.
