Ever since before the first puck dropped to kick off the 2016 Stanley Cup Playoffs, the Tampa Bay Lightning have been dealing with more than their fair share of injuries. Heck, if you look back into the regular season, there was a time when the Lightning had no less than nine players relegated to the sidelines with a variety of injuries.
Unfortunately, as the Tampa Bay Lightning prepares to take on the Pittsburgh Penguins in the 2016 Eastern Conference Final, some of the more integral parts of the Lightning’s offensive and defensive cores still remain on the sidelines with rather serious injuries.
