Status report
Tampa Bay did not have a morning skate. Vasilevskiy is expected to start after Elliott made 45 saves in a 4-1 loss to the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday. … The Lightning could dress Foote as a seventh defenseman, with Raddysh, a forward, likely to come out of the lineup. … Pettersson was the only player who did not take part in the Canucks optional skate and coach Bruce Boudreau said it was due to "maintenance," but the forward is expected to play. … Poolman hasn't been cleared to return yet despite practicing with the Canucks since Monday but Boudreau said he expects the defenseman back in the lineup by the end of next week.
