Palat (personal) was a participant at practice Tuesday morning, Mike Morreale of NHL.com reports.
Palat missed Saturday's contest against Buffalo due to the birth of his second child. The two-time Stanley Cup winner will slot in on New Jersey's third line while being a special teams contributor now that he is back with the team. Palat produced 31 points in 71 regular-season games with New Jersey in 2023-24.
