Nicholas Paul Exits Early With Injury Tuesday
2 hours agoTampa Bay Lightning forward Nicholas Paul (undisclosed) couldn't complete Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win against Pittsburgh. He left the game in the second frame after logging 10:38 of ice time. Paul had three shots and one hit in the contest. The 29-year-old will be further evaluated on Wednesday. Skating in various roles in the lineup, Paul has amassed 13 points (five goals, eight assists) in 17 appearances this season. He started out as a second-line winger on Tuesday. Cam Atkinson is in line to rejoin the lineup if Paul can't play on Thursday against Columbus. Atkinson, a former Blue Jacket, has had a very limited role in Tampa Bay, contributing one assist in 11 outings.
