On Saturday night, during the third game of the series between the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Toronto Maple Leafs, an incident occurred that could have had serious consequences. Indeed, Brayden Point suffered a dangerous hit from Morgan Rielly and had to leave the game.
It seems that it was more scare than harm, as the head coach of the Bolts, Jon Cooper, stated Monday morning that his forward had very good chances of playing tonight's game.
This is major for Tampa!
We will therefore know just before the game whether he will be able to return to play or not. The forward has accumulated 1 goal and 2 assists for a total of 3 points in as many games during the current series. Having him in the lineup would be a big plus for the Lightning.
