New Jersey Devils superstar Jack Hughes is back in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Calgary Flames after missing the last 11 contests with an upper-body injury, the team announced.
Hughes also missed five games in November with an upper-body injury.
Despite the missed time, he still ranks second on the Devils with 45 points in 32 games this season. Jesper Bratt paces the team with 52 points and has played in all 48 of New Jersey's contests.
Hughes skated on a line with Tyler Toffoli and Alexander Holtz at Thursday's morning skate. He also assumed his regular spot on the top power-play unit with Nico Hischier, Luke Hughes, Bratt, and Toffoli.
The Devils are 19-11-2 with Hughes in the lineup this year but 6-9-1 without him.
