The incident in question occurred during the Devils' 4-0 loss on Tuesday. Subban was not assessed a penalty on the play.
Subban, 32, was fined $5,000, also the maximum allowable fine, last week for tripping Calgary Flames forward Milan Lucic.
In his 13th NHL season and third with the Devils, Subban has three assists in eight games.
Coincidentally, Zegras was the recipient of the hit for which the NHL most recently suspended a player.
Montreal Canadiens forward Cedric Paquette was given a two-game ban for boarding Zegras during Sunday's game.
