Zajac is off to a hot start in 2009-10 with two goals and an assist in three games.

The Devils looked as resilient as ever in their first win of the new season.

Thursday in Tampa Bay, Travis Zajac saved the Devils from an 0-3-0 record by scoring the tying goal with one second left in regulation. Martin Brodeur registered 41 saves, and Zach Parise and Jamie Langenbrunner contributed shootout tallies to finish off New Jersey's 4-3 victory.

The Devils improved to 1-2-0 heading into Saturday's battle at Florida. But late flourishes are nothing new for this group, which made clutch comebacks a hallmark of their 2008-09 run to the Atlantic Division title.

Oct. 11, 2008 / 2-1 OT Win @ PIT: Patrik Elias scored with 2:29 left in regulation to tie the game at 1 before Parise won it with 38 seconds left in overtime.
