This Lightning forward is dealing with an upper-body injury.

Will Nikita Kucherov be the next NHL player to hit 1,000 career points?

The Tampa Bay Lightning have announced that forward Conor Geekie is listed as day-to-day due to an upper-body injury.

This is certainly tough news for the Lightning, as Geekie is one of the club's most promising young players. The 20-year-old forward has been cementing himself as a key part of the lineup this season due to his skill and hard-nosed style of play.

Geekie has appeared in 31 games this season with the Lightning, where he has five goals, 10 points, 51 hits, and a plus-4 rating.
