Lightning Provide Rough Update About Important Forward

While speaking to reporters, including Erik Erlendsson, Tampa Bay Lightning head coach Jon Cooper shared that he expects forward Nick Paul to be out for the rest of this week at least. 

Paul, 29, last played on Nov. 19 against the Pittsburgh Penguins and has been out since due to an injury. 

Paul has had an excellent start to the season with the Bolts. In 17 games with the Atlantic Division club, the 6-foot-4 forward has five goals, 13 points, 19 hits, and a plus-2 rating. This is after he set career highs last season with 24 goals, 22 assists, and 46 points.
