Lightning's Vladislav Namestnikov: Could return Monday

Namestnikov (lower body) could rejoin the lineup for Monday's game against the Rangers, Joe Smith of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Analysis:

Namestnikov missed Saturday's game against the Panthers due to the injury, but did test it out prior to the contest. The winger should have his status updated again prior to the opening faceoff, but it shouldn't have a large impact in anything other than deep season-long leagues or as a sleeper in daily lineups.
