Parent was assigned to AHL Utica on Saturday.
The Devils noted that the Parent and Calen Addison were returned to the minors ahead of Friday's roster freeze, and the team also activated Timo Meier (personal) from the non-roster list. Parent has two shots on goal and seven hits in five NHL outings this season without earning a point.

Devils' Xavier Parent: Called up from minors
Rotowire
Parent was elevated from AHL Utica on Thursday.
Parent has never appeared in an NHL game, and while he's far from a lock to play against the Lightning on Thursday, his 12 points in 20 minor-league games this year could convince the coaching staff to give him a look. If Parent does get into the lineup, it will likely come at the expense of Juho Lammikko, who has served as a healthy scratch for the last three contests.
