Devils center Travis Zajac said he came back too soon from a torn Achilles tendon. While Zajac's return to action in December did not result in his re-injuring the tendon that he tore last summer during off-ice workouts, he admits he was not conditioned to the degree he should have been. Zajac played eight games before shutting it down again. He has been picking up the pace during practice this week, but there is no timetable for when he will come back.
