Lightning's Vladislav Namestnikov: Receives day-to-day label

Namestnikov has been labeled day-to-day as a result of the lower-body injury he suffered against the Wild on Thursday night.

Analysis:

It initially looked like Namestnikov's injury could have been a lot worse, so it's nice to know that he is not dealing with a more severe, long-term injury. All the same, the Russian pivot has recorded just one assist while averaging 12:33 of ice time in his last six games, so a few games off is more likely to hurt the Lightning more than it is to hurt most fantasy owners.
