Set to play Hedman (head) is expected to play Saturday versus the Kings, Gabby Shirley of FanDuel Sports Network Florida & Sun reports.

Impact Hedman was injured in the third period of Thursday's game against the Sharks, but it doesn't look like the issue will cost him additional time. The 34-year-old defenseman is slated to play on the top pairing and first power-play unit. Hedman has been limited to three assists over his last seven contests since returning from a lower-body injury Dec. 17.

Injured late in loss Hedman left Thursday's game against the Sharks after he was struck in the head by a puck in the third period. There was no update on his status after the contest, Eduardo A. Encina...

Impact Hedman missed a few minutes late in the third period, but without a status update from head coach Jon Cooper, there's no telling if the blueliner will be healthy for Saturday's game against the Kings. He was held off the scoresheet for a third straight contest Thursday. The Lightning will need to call up a blueliner if Hedman can't play, so keep an eye on the team's transactions over the next couple of days.

Impact Both helpers came in the first period, as the veteran blueliner had a hand in tallies by Nikita Kucherov and Jake Guentzel. Hedman's goal drought has reached 14 appearances, but he's been plenty productive over that stretch with 12 assists, including four on the power play.

Logs helper in loss Hedman notched an assist and two shots on goal in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Panthers.

Impact The helper was Hedman's first point in three games since he returned from missing two contests due to a lower-body injury. The 34-year-old defenseman has had few dry spells this year while serving as the Lightning's unquestioned top blueliner. He's at four goals, 22 helpers, 68 shots on net, 51 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating through 29 appearances.

Back in the saddle in win Hedman (lower body) played 22:22 in his return to action Tuesday in a 5-3 win over Columbus.

Impact Hedman fired one shot, blocked two shots and laid one hit in his return. Get him back in your lineup. Hedman has 25 points, including 21 helpers, in just 27 games. He could challenge for another 70-plus point season this year.

DECEMBER 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Set to play Hedman (lower body) will play against Columbus on Tuesday, according to Erik Erlendsson of LightningInsider.com.

Impact Hedman will return to the top pairing and first power-play unit after missing the last two games. He has generated four goals, 25 points, 64 shots on net and 47 blocked shots across 26 appearances this season. With Hedman back in the lineup, Declan Carlile will be a healthy scratch versus the Blue Jackets.

DECEMBER 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Game-time call Tuesday Hedman (lower body) will be a game-time decision versus Columbus on Tuesday, Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Impact Hedman looks poised to return following a two-game stint on the shelf due to his lower-body problem. Prior to his absence, the veteran blueliner was stuck in a 10-game goal drought but racked up nine helpers during that stretch, including four with the man advantage. Look for Hedman to rejoin the No. 1 power-play unit if given the all-clear ahead of puck drop Tuesday.

DECEMBER 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Saturday Hedman (lower body) is not in the lineup for Saturday's game versus the Kraken, Gabby Shirley of FanDuel Sports Network Florida & Sun reports.

Impact Hedman will miss a second straight game with the injury. Declan Carlile will be in the lineup since the Lightning are missing both Hedman and J.J. Moser (undisclosed). Hedman's next chance to play is Tuesday at home versus the Blue Jackets.

DECEMBER 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Game-time call Saturday Hedman is expected to be a game-time decision for Saturday's tilt versus Seattle, per Gabby Shirley of FanDuel Sports Network Florida & Sun.

Impact Hedman was a late scratch Thursday because of the injury. He has four goals and 25 points in 26 appearances in 2024-25. If Hedman can't play Saturday, then Declan Carlile will presumably make his NHL season debut after being recalled from AHL Syracuse.

Kucherov's 6 points, Guentzel's hat trick leads Lightning to 8-3 romp over Flames

DECEMBER 13, 2024 • Associated Press

Late scratch Thursday Hedman (lower body) is a late scratch for Thursday's game against Calgary, according to Benjamin Pierce of the Lightning's official site.

Impact Hedman is regarded as day-to-day. He has four goals and 25 points in 26 outings in 2024-25. The blueliner was on the ice for the pregame warmups, and there was no prior indication that he was in danger of missing the game. However, Steve Santini skated as an extra for the warmups, perhaps as an insurance policy in case Hedman proved to be unavailable. Either way, Santini will probably draw into the lineup due to Hedman's absence.

Sets franchise career assist record Hedman had two assists in a 5-3 loss to Toronto on Saturday.

Impact With the helpers, Hedman set a new Tampa Bay career assist record with 590, passing Martin St. Louis (588). He's also the fourth active defender to hit the 750 point make. The others? Erik Karlsson, Brent Burns and Kris Letang. That's heady territory. Hedman has four goals, 18 assists, 59 shots and 43 blocks in 23 games. He's headed to the Hall of Fame, and we get to watch as he helps carry our fantasy squads on his way there.
