Travis Zajac, who recently returned from a torn Achilles tendon, logged 19:35 minutes on Tuesday.
Zajac was filling in for Patrik Elias, who had the flu. Zajac has been primarily playing on the third line since his return and he admitted to being tired after the contest. "I think it was more me not being used to playing that much in the third," Zajac said. "I felt a little tired, but that's what happens when you miss camp and the preseason. That was the only thing. By the end of the game, I was pretty tired." With Elias expected to play on Friday, Zajac should be back on the third line.
