The Lightning, according to head coach Jon Cooper, "plan to play without" Brayden Point in the Eastern Conference Final.
«Pointer's playing hockey again. We just don't know if it's this season, next season, this round. If we're fortunate enough to win this round, can he play next one? We don't know that. Is he improving daily? He is.»
«It's way too soon to tell now if he's going to be able to play or not. I think the worst of it is over for him now. I would temper any of the expectations of him coming back at all.»
He is skating but at a very minimal effort.
