The news on the Lightning injuries appears encouraging, with Tyler Johnson, Vladislav Namestnikov and Cedric Paquette all considered day-to-day with lower body injuries, the team announced today.
But there still doesn't seem to be a definite timetable on when any of the centers will be back. None of them practiced Friday and it would be surprising to see any of them play Saturday against the Panthers at Amalie Arena.
"They all looked bad," associate coach Rick Bowness said. "Only time will tell, we'll see how that goes."
Johnson, Namestnikov and Paquette all had to be helped off the ice at different times, all appearing to be favoring their left leg.
