It was like old times for Devils left wing Zach Parise and center Travis Zajac in Thursday's 6-4 win over Tampa Bay. After Parise missed all but one of the team's final 70 games of last season following surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his right knee, Zajac missed all but eight of the Devils' first 75 games of this season while recovering from a torn left Achilles tendon. The longtime linemates are finally both healthy now and were reunited in Thursday's game on a line with Ilya Kovalchuk. Although Zajac didn't get on the score sheet, Kovalchuk scored a goal and Parise had an assist. "It was fun," Parise said. "I thought we made some good plays, some good cycles. We could have had a few more (goals), should have had a few more, but it will come. I think as he gets more and more comfortable if they keep it like this it will be pretty good line." "In the first period, we made some good plays," Zajac said. "We were just a bounce away from getting a couple, I thought. The second and third periods were good, too. We had some chances. It will come."
