by from on (#26ZEG)
Things aren't getting any easier for the Tampa Bay Lightning.
Having battled injuries to key forwards all season long, the latest to hit the shelf is rookie Brayden Point, who will miss four-to-six weeks with an upper-body injury, the team announced Thursday.
Cooper: "Right when you think you're taking steps to get healthier, we take two steps back. Point was really coming into his own."

Point, 20, has been a pleasant addition to the Lightning forward corps this season, chipping in 15 points in 36 games as a rookie.
