Erik Cernak - Leaves game after blocked shot Cernak did not return to Thursday's game versus the Flyers after blocking a shot in the second period, Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Impact There was no update on Cernak's status after the game. The 27-year-old's heavily defensive playing style often leads to him needing attention at times during games. He'll have the benefit of an extended break in the schedule for the Lightning -- their next game is next Thursday versus the Jets.

Brayden Point - Ruled out against Philadelphia Point (lower body) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Flyers, Erik Erlendsson of LightningInsider.com reports.

Impact Point sustained his injury Sunday against Winnipeg and will be unavailable for a second consecutive game Thursday. However, the 28-year-old skated Thursday morning, and he'll have a week to recover before the Lightning take on the Jets on Nov. 14. Brandon Hagel and Anthony Cirelli should continue to play alongside Nikita Kucherov on the top line during Thursday's matchup against the Flyers.

Impact Vasilevskiy is 6-5-0 with a 2.59 GAA and a .903 save percentage this season. He was a top-three NHL goaltender for six seasons heading into the 2023-24 campaign, but he hasn't looked the same since undergoing back surgery during training camp in September of 2023. Vasilevskity will face the Flyers, who are averaging only 2.62 goals per game.

Anthony Cirelli - Grabs helper in loss Cirelli notched an assist in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Blues.

Impact Cirelli filled in as the top-line center with Brayden Point (lower body) unavailable Tuesday. It was in that role where Cirelli fed defenseman Nick Perbix for the game's opening goal at 2:39 of the second period. Cirelli is off to a great start with 13 points, 19 shots on net, 12 blocked shots, eight PIM and a plus-3 rating over 13 contests. He's usually on the second line, but he's got strong enough two-way chops to move up when necessary.

Victor Hedman - Four-game, five-point streak Hedman scored a goal Tuesday in a 3-2 loss to St. Louis.

Impact He wired a slap shot from the top of the left circle after a Blues turnover. Hedman is in the midst of a four-game, five-point road scoring streak (one goal, four assists), and his 13 points in as many games put him in a tie with Neal Pionk for third in the NHL behind Cale Makar and Josh Morrissey. Hedman is on pace for career highs in shots (239) and blocks (145).

NOVEMBER 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Andrei Vasilevskiy - On precipice of major record Vasilevskiy made 20 saves in a 3-2 loss to St. Louis on Tuesday.

Impact The game was tight throughout, with the Blues holding a slim 2-1 lead until the 8:51 mark of the third. Vasilevskiy has lost two straight games after ringing up three consecutive wins. His next win will be his 300th, and he'll shatter a 61-year-old record for the quickest NHL goaltender to reach that number. Jacques Plante is the record holder at 528 games, but Vasy has played just 488 games. Vasilevskiy came into 2024-25 looking to rebound from what was his worst statistical season of his career, but he's seen some struggles. His 2.59 GAA and .903 save percentage are decent, but he hasn't stolen games for the Bolts this season.

NOVEMBER 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Nick Perbix - First goal of season Perbix scored a goal in a 3-2 loss to the Blues on Tuesday.

Impact It was his first goal of the season. He skated in off the left wing and stuffed in his own rebound. Perbix is a steady defender on the ice, and his offense may be on a slight uptick - he has four points (one goal, three assists) in 10 games. But Perbix's contributions in secondary categories like hits (10) and blocks (six) are well off his 114/80 contributions in those categories in 2023-24. Keep an eye on him - he needs to go on a run to gain fantasy relevance.

NOVEMBER 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Nikita Kucherov - Moves into NHL scoring lead Kucherov had two assists in a 3-2 loss to the Blues on Tuesday.

Impact He's on a four-game, eight-point streak that includes six assists. Kucherov has moved into the NHL scoring lead with 22 points (10 goals, 12 assists), and he has 50 shots and 10 hits. Seven of his points (one goal, six assists) have come on the power play.
