Lightning's Ben Bishop: Likely sidelined for Game 2

Bishop (leg) is doubtful against the Penguins for Game 2 on Monday, Joe Smith of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Analysis:

Bishop did not join his teammates for the game-day skate Monday, instead working out off ice, Frank Seravalli of TSN Sports reports. After being taken out of Game 1 on a stretcher, few people would have expected the netminder to be ready to return this quickly. The team has yet to provide any details on the severity of the injury, but Bishop remains day-to-day and will likely need to resume practicing in full before retaking his spot in the crease.
