Hedman (upper-body) is on the ice for Monday's practice.

Hedman missed Saturday’s game with an upper-body injury, believed to be a head injury. However, Hedman was back at practice this morning in a regular jersey and skated in his normal spot on the top-pair. It appears as if Hedman will be back in the lineup on Tuesday vs. Nashville.

Hedman (upper-body) will not play on Saturday vs. Buffalo.

Hedman suffered an injury on Friday and it will keep him out of the Lightning lineup tonight vs. Buffalo. He went through concussion protocol following the hit that injured him, so he could be dealing with concussion symptoms, but he is not expected to miss an extended period of time. With Hedman out, Slater Koekkek has been recalled and will make his season debut.

Hedman officially listed as day-to-day with a lower-body injury.

Hedman was listed as questionable after suffering a lower-body injury last night, but has now been officially given a “day-to-day” tag, which suggests that he will not play tonight vs. the Maple Leafs. Slater Koekkoek has been recalled from Syracuse (AHL) and is expected to make his NHL debut.

Hedman is questionable for Tuesday’s game with an undisclosed injury.

Hedman left yesterday’s game with an undisclosed injury and did not return. The injury could keep him out of Tuesday’s game in Toronto and would be a massive blow to the Lightning’s blue line, who recently lost Jason Garrison and Andrej Sustr.

Hedman (lower-body) will not play tonight and is listed as day-to-day.

Hedman was injured in the Lightning’s loss last night and will not play tonight vs. the Bruins. He will be replaced by Nikita Nesterov on the blue line and Anton Stralman will take his spot on the Lightning’s top power-play unit. Monitor his status prior to Thursday’s game vs. Edmonton.

Hedman (lower-body) is questionable for Tuesday’s game vs. Boston.

Hedman left last night’s loss to the Flyers with a lower-body injury and did not return. Coach Jon Cooper said after the game that “there’s a good chance” that Hedman does not play tonight against the Bruins. The Lightning likely won’t have a morning skate, so we won’t know Hedman’s status until closer to game-time.
