Brayden Point Sits Out Tuesday's Game
2 months agoTampa Bay Lightning center Brayden Point (lower body) will not be available for Tuesday's clash with St. Louis. Point sustained a lower-body injury on Sunday versus Winnipeg and hasn't recovered in time for Tuesday's game. Point's absence will lead to a number of changes in attack for Tampa Bay. Nikita Kucherov and Brandon Hagel will skate with Anthony Cirelli on the first line, with Nicholas Paul moving to the second line. He will be flanked by Jake Guentzel and Mitchell Chaffee. The latter will replace Point on the first power-play unit. As a result of the changes, we will also see Conor Geekie drop back down to the third line.
