Tampa Bay Lightning forward Cedric Paquette exited Game 2 in Montreal early in the second period after suffering an undisclosed injury late in the first.
Paquette said he felt something during his last shift of the opening period and went into the locker room to be examined.
“We couldn’t tell what it was right away,” Paquette said. “Just try one shift in the second, and I couldn’t do much on the ice.”
Paquette played just 4:36 of Game 2. He practiced on Tuesday with the rest of his Lightning teammates at Amalie Arena ahead of Game 3 and didn’t seem limited while participating in all drills.
