#tblightning D Victor Hedman on the ice for morning skate, is a game time decision, big change on his status from yesterday
Definitely NOT a concussion I can assure you RT @captkirk42 Does Hedman have a concussion? out a week or two longer makes me wonder.

Hedman is expected to miss a few weeks with his current upper-body injury. He scored two goals over his first 13 games this season.
Hedman has an upper-body injury, the team said, and coach Guy Boucher said the defenseman had an MRI exam, though there was no immediate word on what it revealed. The belief is Hedman, apparently hurt during Friday’s victory over the Blackhawks, could be out up to two weeks.
