Tampa Bay Lightning forward Cedric Paquette isn't sure whether he'll play in Game 3 against the Montreal Canadiens on Wednesday night.

The forward described his chances of playing in the game as "50-50" when asked by reporters at the morning skate.

Paquette left the Lightning's Game 2 victory with an undisclosed injury and did not return.

He took part in the skate Wednesday but head coach Jon Cooper said Paquette will be a game-time decision and has not yet consulted with the team's training staff.

Jonathan Drouin will likely play if Paquette is unable to suit up.
