Tampa Bay Lightning forward Brayden Point was dealing with a significant tear in his quad during the Stanley Cup Playoffs but is expected to recover in a few weeks, according to general manager Julian BriseBois.
Point was injured during Game 7 of the team's first-round series against the Toronto Maple Leafs and returned for the opening two games in the Stanley Cup Final as the Bolts were bounced in six games by the Colorado Avalanche.
Head coach Jon Cooper did not rule him out for a potential Game 7 of the Cup Final prior to Game 6 but also added that Point was dealing with a "severe" injury.
