Lightning's Charle-Edouard D'Astous: Game-time call Wednesday

D'Astous (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision for Game 5 against Montreal on Wednesday, per Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times.

Analysis:

D'Astous has missed Tampa Bay's past three games due to the injury. He had six goals, 29 points, 112 PIM, 96 hits and 74 blocks in 70 regular-season outings in 2025-26. Max Crozier might be a healthy scratch if D'Astous draws into the lineup.
