The Tampa Bay Lightning has been forced to deal with more injuries in a single season than any team should be forced to deal with in three seasons. In fact, there was a point in the season when the team was steadily losing more players than were returning to the lineup. This has caused all kinds of problems for the Bolts.
Slowly, but surely, some Lightning players have made their way back into the lineup. Unfortunately, there are a handful of key players still relegated to the sidelines with a variety of injuries. One of the many players still located on the Lightning’s injury list is Lightning forward Michael Bournival.
