During the third game of the series between the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday night, an incident occurred that could have had serious consequences. Morgan Rielly violently checked Brayden Point, forcing him to leave the game due to the dangerousness of the collision.
It appears that the incident was less serious than expected, as Bolts head coach Jon Cooper said Monday morning that Brayden Point has a very good chance of playing in tonight's game. This news is important for Tampa, as Point is a key player on the team.
The coach's decision on Point's participation in tonight's game will be made just before the match. Point has been a key player for Tampa, scoring one goal and getting two assists for a total of three points in three games of the series. His return to the lineup would be an important advantage for Tampa Bay.
