Victor Hedman appears unlikely to suit up in another critical game for the Tampa Bay Lightning.
The star defenseman is doubtful for Game 4 against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Tuesday night, Lightning head coach Jon Cooper said Monday, according to The Athletic's Joe Smith.
Hedman was held out of Game 3 with an undisclosed ailment.
Columbus took a 3-0 series lead over Tampa Bay with a 3-1 victory Sunday.
