Bishop taking shots this morning at practice.

ondrej palat is not taking part in the optional skate this morning so I would say he is out

Bishop taking shots is great news.

Well it's optional. Didn't Cooper say he would be a game time decision?

EE:

Ondrej Palat called game time decision by Jon Cooper who also said it's unlikely Palat will play

Ahh crap. Ok thanks.

 

[Lord Stan 2020]

the word is he might have a couple of issues palat.

Knee to Knee hit plus the upper body thing which have no clue what that is? I figure we get him back for game four at latest and bishop will maybe get in by game five.

Those are best case so maybe palat game 3 id bet on game four for sure yet have a belief da DREJ will be back for the third game three days off is wonderful for these tough bastiges and bishop game five maybe but by end of series id say he can play.

Is there a video of the knee on knee hit?

Was wondering about it too.

If anyone knows what time in the game it happened I can make a gif..

I only picked up the knee to knee thing off twitter was a good source though not some dummy talking about the whole thing so no idea on a video.

The tampa bay times or newspaper mentioned the knee to knee with subban and cooper saying is upper body injury

He exited the game in the 3rd period iirc within the first 3 minutes.

Well hopefully he feels dramatically better by tonight.

CBC showed the hit from Subban. Didn't look too bad. I would say that it has more to do with the prior injury.

 

[MattM92]

I don't think he suffered any injury on Wednesday, besides maybe aggravating his prior injury. The last shift I remember him playing was probably his best. He went hard on the forecheck and threw a good hit on Gorges I think. Don't remember seeing him take any shifts after that.

I thought the same thing. The knee didn't look all that bad. Some contact, but it didn't look dangerous or anything.

@DarrenDreger: Palat skating for the Lightning in an optional today.

I hope he can make it back and be healthy. Without him this team looks much worse. We really need this kid more than we realized.

 

[Stelio Kontos]

@LightningTimes: Palat said he'll be a game-time decision on Sunday. Said the Johnson hit on April 11 vs. Columbus caused the problem.

Well we knew that, but what is hurting? It's not a concussion and it was a clean hit. So does he have a bruised sternum? Cracked rib?

Palat hopeful to return for game 3: http://www.tsn.ca/VideoHub/?collection=72&show=328203 (video)

Good, good.

Is Bishop definitely not going to be able to come back until game 5?

I'd be shocked if he's ready for game 5. Game 6 or 7 maybe, but again I doubt it.

Lightning RW J.T. Brown is good to go for Sunday after his back got wrenched from a hit along the boards in Friday's game.

Thanks for the info.

It completely sucks that Bishop is injured.
