Point (hip) will miss at least two more games.

Point (hip) returned to practice on Monday.

Point was not expected to be ready for the season opener, but he was a full participant in Monday’s practice and centred the top-line with Steven Stamkos and Nikita Kucherov. This doesn’t necessarily mean Point will be ready for Thursday, but the possibility of him playing is looking more and more likely.

The Lightning have re-signed Brayden Point to a three-year contract worth $20.25 million ($6.75M AAV).

Point is coming off of a breakout campaign, having scored 41 goals with 51 assists (92 points) in 79 games. Point can expect some regression in 2020, after shooting 21.5 percent last year but ranks tied for eighth in goals (73) and tied for 22nd in points (158) over the last two seasons.

Point (lower-body) will be a game-time decision on Tuesday.

Point was scratched from the Lightning’s lineup in New York on Saturday but the Lightning said that it’s just a minor injury and it looks like he could be back in on Tuesday. Point has been outstanding this season, scoring 30 goals with 35 assists (65 points) in 51 games and is a must-start if he ends up playing.
