Status report
Because of injuries, the Lightning could dress 12 forwards and five defensemen Tuesday. ... Cernak, a defenseman, is day to day, and Fleury, a defenseman, is week to week. … Sergachev, also a defenseman, skated briefly before leaving the ice early during Tampa Bay's morning skate Tuesday. ... The Lightning recalled Myers from Syracuse of the American Hockey League and reassigned defenseman Sean Day on Monday. … Sheary, a forward, skated Tuesday but will be a game-time decision; he missed one game after leaving in the second period of a 5-1 loss to the New York Rangers on Saturday. ... Vasilevskiy will make his 10th start in 11 games. … The Jets will dress the same lineup they used in a 3-2 win at the Minnesota Wild on Sunday. … Kupari, a forward, and Heinola, a defenseman, each skated in full-contact jerseys for the first time Tuesday since being injured; Neither is expected to play but each will travel with Winnipeg on its upcoming three-game road trip, starting at the San Jose Sharks on Thursday.
