Impact Fleury entered the tilt with a goal, five points, 31 hits and 37 blocks in 23 appearances with the Lightning this season. If Fleury isn't available Tuesday versus Columbus, then Calvin de Haan will likely draw back into the lineup.

Back in action Fleury (lower body) is expected to be in the lineup Saturday versus the Islanders, Chris Krenn of the Lightning's official site reports.

Impact Fleury will return from a six-game absence and take the place of Erik Cernak (coach's decision) on the second pairing. Fleury has four points through 21 appearances this season, offering minimal fantasy upside.

MARCH 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sitting out again Fleury (lower body) won't play Wednesday versus the Bruins, Chris Krenn of the Lightning's official site reports.

Impact Fleury will be out for a sixth straight game. He was reportedly getting closer to a return during the Lightning's road trip, but it's unclear if he'll play immediately after getting the green light since the Lightning have eight defensemen on the roster. The team's next game is Saturday versus the Islanders.

MARCH 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Out Sunday Fleury (lower body) will not play Sunday against Anaheim, Gabby Shirley of Bally Sports Florida reports.

Impact Fleury has now missed five straight games but appears to be nearing a return. His next chance to play will be Wednesday against Boston.

MARCH 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Won't return Saturday Fleury (lower body) is out for Saturday's matchup with the Kings, Gabby Shirley of Bally Sports Florida reports.

Impact Fleury will miss a fourth straight game, though coach Jon Cooper didn't close the door on the defenseman returning Sunday versus Anaheim, stating Fleury's "getting closer". The 27-year-old blueliner has one goal and four points with a plus-five rating through 21 games this season. Emil Lilleberg will likely remain on Tampa's third pairing while Fleury's sidelined.

MARCH 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Remains unavailable Thursday Fleury (lower body) isn't available for Thursday's game against San Jose, per Gabby Shirley of Bally Sports Florida.

Impact Fleury is set to miss his third straight contest. Coach Jon Cooper described Fleury's injury as "nagging" and said the Lightning want to be cautious to avoid having him "come back too soon." Fleury might still make his return for Saturday's game in LA or Sunday's match in Anaheim. The 27-year-old defenseman has a goal and four points in 21 outings this season. When he is healthy, Fleury might serve on the third pairing.

MARCH 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Still out Tuesday Fleury (undisclosed) won't play Tuesday versus the Golden Knights, Chris Krenn of the Lightning's official site reports.

Impact Fleury suffered the injury Thursday versus the Rangers, but there's been little update beyond that. The 27-year-old defenseman has mainly filled a third-pairing role this season. Calvin de Haan remains in the lineup while Fleury is out.

MARCH 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Unavailable Saturday Fleury (undisclosed) won't play Saturday against the Panthers, according to Chris Krenn of the Lightning's official site.

Impact Fleury is considered day-to-day after being injured in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Rangers. The Lightning recalled Emil Lilleberg from AHL Syracuse on Saturday, but Calvin De Haan might be the defender who draws into the lineup versus Florida.

MARCH 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Slated to play Thursday Fleury (upper body) is set to return Thursday against Buffalo, according to Gabby Shirley of Bally Sports Florida.

Impact Fleury has a goal and four points in 17 contests this season. He missed three straight games because of the injury. With Fleury back, Emil Martinsen Lilleberg is projected to be a healthy scratch Thursday.

FEBRUARY 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Tuesday Fleury (upper body) won't play Tuesday versus Philadelphia, per Gabby Shirley of Bally Sports Florida.

Impact Fleury will miss his third straight contest despite taking part in the morning skate. He has supplied one goal, three assists, 23 blocked shots and 23 hits over 17 appearances this season. Fleury's next chance to play will be Thursday against the Sabres.

FEBRUARY 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Deemed day-to-day Fleury (upper body) is not expected to play Sunday versus New Jersey, per Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times.

Impact Fleury, who is considered day-to-day, is poised to miss his second straight contest after getting injured in Thursday's 5-3 loss to Washington. He has contributed one goal, three assists, 23 blocked shots and 23 hits over 17 NHL outings this season.

FEBRUARY 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Not playing Saturday Fleury (undisclosed) won't be in the lineup versus the Islanders on Saturday, per Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times.

Impact Fleury played only 5:05 Thursday after missing the previous game as a healthy scratch. Erik Cernak will return to the lineup as he missed one game with an illness. Fleury has a goal and three assists in 17 games with the Lightning this season.

FEBRUARY 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sustains undisclosed injury Fleury suffered an undisclosed injury and won't return to Thursday's game against Washington, per Erik Erlendsson of LightningInsider.com.

Impact Fleury entered the contest with a goal and four points in 16 appearances this season. It's believed he sustained the injury when he was hit by the Capitals' Tom Wilson in the first period, according to Tom Gulitti of NHL.com. Tampa Bay entered Thursday's action with just six healthy defensemen, so the loss of Fleury might complicate matters for Saturday's match against the Islanders, but Erik Cernak (illness) might be healthy by then.

FEBRUARY 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Back from injury Fleury (hand) was plus-1 and had four blocks in 22:07 of ice time in a 4-2 win over Columbus on Saturday.

Impact Fleury had missed 14 games with a hand injury after blocking a shot. He doesn't shine in any specific fantasy category, so he's best left on the wire.

FEBRUARY 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Returns from IR Fleury (hand) was activated from long-term injured reserve Sunday, per CapFriendly.

Impact Fleury missed the last 12 games but should be available for Tampa Bay's next game, which will be Feb. 7 against the Rangers after the All-Star break. The 27-year-old has four points in 12 games this season.

JANUARY 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Closing in on return Fleury (hand) should be ready to return following the All-Star break, Erik Erlendsson of LightningInsider.com reports.

Impact Fleury hasn't played since Dec. 31 versus the Canadiens due to a hand injury. Even once given a clean bill of health, the 27-year-old defender will likely frequently sit as a healthy scratch for the Lightning, so he won't be a viable fantasy option in season-long formats. Fleury's picked up four points through 12 top-level appearances this year.

Moves to IR Fleury (hand) was placed on injured reserve Monday, per the NHL media site.

Impact Per Corey Long of NHL.com, Fleury exited Sunday's 4-3 win over Montreal in the second period after blocking a shot with his hand. He will miss Tampa Bay's upcoming three-game road trip following his placement on the IR list. Philippe Myers, who was recalled from the minors Monday, could replace Fleury in the lineup against Winnipeg on Tuesday.

JANUARY 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Can't finish contest Fleury (undisclosed) did not return to Sunday's game versus the Canadiens after leaving in the second period, Chris Krenn of the Lightning's official site reports.

Impact The Lightning closed out the contest with four blueliners, as Erik Cernak (undisclosed) also left the game in the middle frame. There was no update on Fleury or Cernak after the contest, leaving their status up in the air for Tuesday's game versus the Jets. Sean Day would likely fill in if one of them can't play -- the Lightning may also have to make roster moves to fill out their blue line.

JANUARY 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Goal, assist in victory Fleury tallied a goal and an assist in Tuesday's 6-1 win over the Blues.

Impact Fleury picked up a helper on Mikey Eyssimont's opening tally in the first period before adding his first goal of the season midway through the second, beating Jordan Binnington with a shot through traffic to extend Tampa's lead to 5-0. The 27-year-old Fleury has played in four of the Lightning's last five games after serving as a healthy scratch for much of the year. He could see his role further expanded depending on the severity of Mikhail Sergachev's (lower body) injury. Fleury now has a goal and four points in seven games this season.

DECEMBER 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Back from conditioning loan Fleury was recalled from his conditioning assignment with AHL Syracuse on Tuesday.

Impact Fleury didn't pick up a point in five appearances at the minor-league level during his conditioning loan. He has one assist and three hits in two outings with Tampa Bay this campaign.

NOVEMBER 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

On conditioning stint Fleury was sent to AHL Syracuse on a conditioning assignment Thursday.

Impact Fleury picked up an assist Monday, but it was only his second NHL game of the season as he has been a healthy scratch on seven occasions. Look for Fleury to see plenty of action in the next two weeks for the Crunch.

NOVEMBER 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Notches helper against Kraken Fleury registered an assist in Monday's 4-3 defeat to Seattle.

Impact Fleury was playing in just his second game of the season while the Lightning gave Calvin de Haan the night off. For his part, the 27-year-old Fleury is averaging just 11:14 of ice time and almost certainly will continue to watch plenty of games from the press box while de Haan gets the bulk of the games.

OCTOBER 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Can't earn full-time role Fleury has played just 28 games this season.

Impact He has a single assist, which he notched in his second game back in October. Fleury was a first-round pick of Carolina in 2014 but has struggled to earn a full-time role in any of his six seasons. Or with any of the four teams (Carolina, Anaheim, Seattle and Tampa Bay) he's played for since breaking in. It doesn't look like it's going to change any time soon.
