Tufte was recalled from AHL Utica on Monday.
Tufte has yet to get into an NHL game this season, but he could be pressed into service versus the Jets on Tuesday if the Devils don't want to deploy seven blueliners. The 2016 first-round pick hasn't been particularly productive in the minors, garnering two assists in nine games with the Comets, so fantasy managers probably shouldn't be expecting much out of him even if he does play Tuesday.
