Zibanejad missed Thursday's overtime win against the Chicago Blackhawks after taking a hit to the head from Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Radko Gudas earlier in the week.
Gudas was suspended three games for the incident.
The 22-year-old Zibanejad has four goals and 12 assists in 24 games this season.
