Lightning's Steven Stamkos: Again out for Game 5

Stamkos' (upper body) status hasn't changed, indicating he will once again sit out as the Bolts prepare for Game 5 Sunday against the Penguins, Joe Smith of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Analysis:

Stamkos was on the ice again for practice Sunday but stayed on well past his teammates. Considering his condition, the timetable remains unclear. While the star forward will take aim at potentially playing in Game 6, there's no indication anything will be different for that contest.
