| C | 1 | Steven Stamkos  ActiveSteven Stamkos earned an assist on Wednesday night in Game 4. Stamkos and Nikita Kucherov set up a goal by J.T. Miller in Tampa Bay's 3-1 victory, which gave the Lightning a 3-1 series lead over New Jersey. He has reached the scoresheet in four straight playoff games, with one goal and four helpers. Apr 19 |
| 2 | Brayden Point ActiveBrayden Point scored a goal and picked up an assist in Saturday's Game 2 win over the New Jersey Devils. Point opened the scoring with a rocket of a wrister for his first career playoff goal. The 22-year-old rookie then followed that up with an assist on Tyler Johnson's second goal of the post-season. Point is up to three points through his first two career playoff games. Nikita Kucherov and Alex Killorn (x2) were the other goal scorers in the 5-3 win. Apr 14 |
| 3 | Tyler Johnson ActiveTyler Johnson (undisclosed) is good to play in Game 4 on Wednesday. Johnson was between questionable and a game-time decision after he missed Tuesday's practice. That combined with him logging just 13:08 of ice time in Game 3 on Monday were concerning, but he's ultimately healthy enough to play. He has two goals and three points in three playoff games. Apr 18 |
| 4 | Cedric Paquette ActiveCedric Paquette scored two goals and an assist in Friday's 7-3 win over the New York Rangers. This was easily his best overall performance of the season. Paquette's first goal tied the game at two, while his second of the night made it 4-1 for his team in the third frame. He also helped set up Dan Girardi's power-play goal in the final minute of regulation. Paquette finished the night with a plus-2 rating and a game-high six shots on goal in 12:16 of ice time. The 24-year-old has five goals, nine points and 41 penalty minutes in 52 games this season. Mar 31 |

The 20-year-old has five goals and 11 points in 17 games this season. The Lightning have an opportunity to clinch the Atlantic Division crown on Saturday night. "We knew this game was a big one for us if we wanted a chance to win the division," said Cirelli. "It was a good third period in that we came out there and played the right way and got the results we needed to get." Apr 7 |
| 6 | Matthew Peca ActiveMatthew Peca has been called up by Tampa Bay. Ryan Callahan (upper body) was injured in Game 2, so Peca could be a potential replacement. Peca posted two goals five points in 10 games with the Lightning during the regular season. Apr 15 |
| 7 | Gabriel Dumont ActiveThe Tampa Bay Lightning have claimed Gabriel Dumont off waivers from Ottawa. Dumont started the season with Tampa Bay, but the Lightning put him on waivers on Nov. 21 and he was claimed by Ottawa, so this is a return to his former team. He has a goal and an assist in 30 games this season. Feb 21 |
| LW | 1 | Ondrej Palat ActiveOndrej Palat scored a goal and picked up two assists in a 5-2 win over the New Jersey Devils in Game 1. Palat got the party going for the Lightning with the opening goal of the series with five minutes left in the first period. He then followed that up by picking up assists on Tampa's next two goals scored by Tyler Johnson and Yanni Gourde. Palat has an impressive 15 goals and 32 points in 47 career NHL post-season games. Alex Killorn and Nikita Kucherov also scored in the win. Apr 12 |
| 2 | Yanni Gourde ActiveYanni Gourde scored a goal and picked up an assist in a 5-2 Game 1 win over the New Jersey Devils. "Yanni Gourde was being Yanni Gourde." said head coach Jon Cooper "He’s not afraid to go anywhere on the ice. He’s like a little waterbug out there." Gourde didn't disappoint in his NHL playoff debut. He was all over the ice causing havoc and could have finished with four or five goals if the puck fell his way a few more times. Alex Killorn, Ondrej Palat, Tyler Johnson and Nikita Kucherov also scored in the win. Apr 12 |
| 3 | Alex Killorn ActiveAlex Killorn scored a goal and an assist in Monday's 5-2 loss to the New Jersey Devils. Killorn opened the scoring with a power-play goal just 42 seconds into the second period. He then registered an assist on Steven Stamkos' tally on the man-advantage early in the third frame. Killorn finished the night with a minus-1 rating, two penalty minutes, one shot on goal and three hits in 20:11 of ice time. The 28-year-old has been productive so far this postseason, as he's accumulated four goals and one assist in three games. The Lightning are still up 2-1 in this best-of-seven series. Game 4 will be played in New Jersey on Wednesday night. Apr 16 |
| 4 | Chris Kunitz ActiveChris Kunitz recorded a goal and an assist in a 5-3 win over the Rangers on Thursday night. Kunitz has 12 goals in his first season with the Lightning after he scored just nine times in 2016-17. However, his overall totals are not much different. Kunitz finished that campaign with 29 points in 71 games and he has 24 points through 68 outings this year. Mar 9 |
| RW | 1 | Nikita Kucherov ActiveNikita Kucherov scored two goals and picked up an assist in Wednesday's 3-1 Game 4 win over the New Jersey Devils. Kucherov first got on the scoresheet with a primary assist on J.T. Miller's first of the post-season. The Russian forward then scored the game-winner less than four minutes later with a quick shot from the slot before adding another goal into an empty net. Despite the big night offensively, all anybody will be talking about is high hit he committed on New Jersey's Sami Vatanen that went unpunished and forced the Finnish defenseman out of the game. It could something for the league to review before Game 5 on Saturday. Apr 18 |
| 2 | J.T. Miller ActiveJ.T. Miller scored a goal and picked up two assists in Wednesday's 3-1 Game 4 win over the New Jersey Devils. Nikita Kucherov fed a streaking Miller who roofed the puck short side on Cory Schneider to tie up the game midway through the first period. Miller then returned the favor to Kucherov by picking up assists on both of the Russian forward's goals. Miller is up to four points through four playoff games so far this post-season. The Lightning will head back to Tampa with a 3-1 series lead. Apr 18 |
| 3 | Ryan Callahan  SidelinedRyan Callahan (upper body) will miss Game 4 on Wednesday. Callahan also wasn't available for Monday's contest. He had five goals and 18 points in 67 regular season games. Apr 18 |
| 4 | Cory Conacher ActiveCory Conacher will play in Game 3 on Monday night. Ryan Callahan (upper body) won't play against New Jersey, so Conacher will take his place on the fourth line alongside Chris Kunitz and Cedric Paquette. Apr 16 |
| 5 | Adam Erne SidelinedAdam Erne (lower body) won't play in Tampa Bay's first-round series versus New Jersey. Coach Jon Cooper delivered the news after Erne practiced with his teammates on Tuesday. He was wearing a regular jersey during the session, so he appears to be on the mend. Apr 17 |
| D | 1 | Victor Hedman ActiveVictor Hedman scored a goal and finished the game as a plus-3 in a 4-0 win over the Boston Bruins. Hedman beat Tuukka Rask with a blast from the point to put the Lightning up 2-0. After losing the last two games to the Bruins by a combined 7-2 score, the Lightning really came out with a purpose tonight and moved back into tie for first in the Eastern Conference with Boston, albeit with the Bruins holding a game in hand. Hedman is up to 16 goals and 61 points in 75 games so far this season. Brayden Point, Chris Kunitz and J.T. Miller also scored in the win. Apr 3 |
| 2 | Ryan McDonagh ActiveRyan McDonagh earned two assists in a 5-3 win over New Jersey on Saturday afternoon. McDonagh picked up helpers on goals by Brayden Point and Tyler Johnson in the match.

| 3 | Mikhail Sergachev ActiveMikhail Sergachev will be a healthy scratch in Saturday's game against the Carolina Hurricanes. Sergachev is one of the regulars that will be rested tonight. Jake Dotchin, Cory Conacher and Andrei Vasilevskiy are the other healthy players that will watch from the press box. Apr 7 |
| 4 | Anton Stralman ActiveAnton Stralman was scoreless in Monday's 2-0 win at Chicago, but he was able to pick up three blocked shots and five hits across 22:30 of ice time. Stralman is stuck on 12 points with a plus-17 rating through 45 games this season. His real value to fantasy owners in deeper pools is for his blocked shots and hits. He now has 60 hits and 48 blocked shots to help fantasy owners in those categories. Jan 22 |
| 5 | Dan Girardi ActiveDan Girardi will suit up in Game 3 against the Devils on Monday night. Girardi was considered a game-time decision for this one, but he's skating on a pairing with Victor Hedman during the pregame warmup. The Bolts have a 2-0 advantage in this best-of-seven series. Apr 16 |
| 6 | Braydon Coburn ActiveBraydon Coburn contributed one assist in Wednesday's 3-1 win over New Jersey. Coburn got his first point of Tampa Bay's first-round series in Game 4 on Nikita Kucherov's game-winning goal. He also had three shots and five hits in 12:55 of ice time. Apr 19 |

| 9 | Andrej Sustr ActiveAndrej Sustr will be a healthy scratch in Monday's game against the New Jersey Devils. Sustr was going to play if Dan Girardi (undisclosed) wouldn't have been able to suit up. The 27-year-old has two goals and five assists in 44 games this season. Slater Koekkoek, Jake Dotchin and Peter Budaj will also watch the game from the press box. Apr 16 |
| G | 1 | Andrei Vasilevskiy ActiveAndrei Vasilevskiy allowed one goal on 28 shots in Wednesday's 3-1 Game 4 win over the New Jersey Devils. Vasilevskiy showed exactly why he's a Vezina trophy finalist with a huge pad save on Patrick Maroon while New Jersey's forward was on a breakaway to keep the Lightning up in the second period. The Russian goaltender put in another great performance tonight to put Tampa to within one win from moving onto round 2. The series will now shift back to Tampa with the Lightning holding a 3-1 series lead heading him Saturday's Game 5 matchup. Apr 18 |
| 2 | Peter Budaj ActivePeter Budaj will be a healthy scratch in Thursday's game against the New York Islanders. Budaj continues to serve as his team's third goaltender for now. Louis Domingue will be Andrei Vasilevskiy's backup tonight. Budaj has a 3-3-1 record with a 3.76 goals-against-average and a .876 save percentage this season. Cedric Paquette, Slater Koekkoek, Jake Dotchin and Cory Conacher are also expected to watch the game from the press box. Mar 22 |
| 3 | Louis Domingue ActiveLouis Domingue allowed three goals on 42 shots in a 3-2 overtime loss to the Carolina Hurricanes. "It hurts." said Domingue. "Because we really had a chance. We hope the hockey gods are on our side." A Bruins loss tomorrow night would clinch first place in the Eastern Conference for the Lightning. Domingue had a terrible start to the year with Arizona but will finish his half season with the Lightning with a 7-3-1 record, a 2.89 goals-against-average and a .914 save percentage. The Lightning have Peter Budaj signed for another season and will need to find a team to dump him on during the off-season. Apr 7 |
