Steven Stamkos is getting at least one night off.
The Tampa Bay Lightning captain won't play Monday against Arizona and is considered day to day with a lower-body injury, head coach Jon Cooper announced.
The injury does not appear to be cause for concern.
Cooper says Steven Stamkos won’t play tonight vs. Arizona, called it “more maintenance” for him than anything. “Hopefully a little rest here will help him out.” Said it’s nothing long term to be concerned with. #Bolts

In 75 games, Stamkos has recorded 27 goals and 59 assists, rebounding exceptionally from a leg injury that kept him out for most of last season.
