Lightning's Hedman in lineup Friday vs. Blackhawks despite undisclosed injury

Ron Chenoy / USA Today

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman is on the ice for pregame warmups and looks like he'll be good to go for Friday's game against the Chicago Blackhawks despite an undisclosed injury, Bryan Burns of NHL.com reports.

Though coach Jon Cooper termed Hedman as a game-time decision, but there was never much doubt in the blueliner's availability after he confirmed that he would play following the Lightning's morning skate. Hedman doesn't look to be in danger of facing any limitations Friday, so his fantasy owners should feel comfortable with keeping him active.
