Forward Jonathan Drouin scored in the third period for the Tampa Bay Lightning in his first NHL game since Dec. 30.
Drouin scored his third NHL goal of the season 3:50 into the period against the New Jersey Devils at Prudential Center.
Drouin was recalled from Syracuse of the American Hockey League on Wednesday in part to help the Lightning offense with forward Steven Stamkos out after surgery for a blood clot.
Drouin, 21, was suspended by the Lightning for failing to report to an AHL game and was reinstated March 7.
