Status report
The Jets didn't take traditional line rushes during their morning skate and the defense pairs could be adjusted prior to the game. ... Fleury will enter the lineup for Bauer on defense and Daws will dress as the backup goalie in place of Stevenson. ...Girgensons, a forward, is likely to miss the next two games. ... Lilleberg enters for Crozier on defense. ... The Lightning are expected to dress 11 forwards and seven defensemen.
