There was a positive sign for the Tampa Bay Lightning defense yesterday at practice. Defenseman Erik Cernak was on the ice taking a regular rotation with Calvin de Haan, an indication that the big blueliner might be back in the line-up tonight against the Los Angeles Kings.
Good sign for the #Bolts at practice in Brandon this morning. Erik Cernak is back on the ice wearing a regular colored jersey and looks to be a full participant. Still no Mikhail Sergachev or Haydn Fleury. Emil Lilleberg and Jack Thompson are still here.
Cernak missed the last three games after taking a big hit behind the net from Josh Anderson.
