Lightning's Jonathan Drouin: Will be game-time decision

Drouin has the flu bug and did not attend morning skate, and he will be a game-time decision for Saturday night's contest, Joe Smith of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Analysis:

In his third year in the league, the former first-round pick is having his best year yet (35 points, 48 games). The winger has scored seven goals and added eight assists on the Lightning's power play this year. Drouin's major difference compared to previous years is the amount of shots he's been taking, with 131 this year already -- his next highest is his rookie year with 76 shots. Drouin has two goals and two assists in the past four games, making him increasingly valuable to fantasy owners right now if he is able to play.
