Lightning's Victor Hedman: Dishes two helpers Tuesday
Hedman logged two assists, three shots on goal, two hits and a plus-3 rating in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Panthers.
Hedman helped out on Conor Geekie's first-period tally and Darren Raddysh's power-play goal in the third. Hedman is dialed in late in the season with three goals and 10 assists over his last 12 outings. The 34-year-old defenseman is at 66 points (26 on the power play), 179 shots on net, 130 blocked shots and a plus-20 rating through 78 appearances. He'll be a key part of the Lightning's overall game plan in their first-round playoff series against the Panthers.

Lightning's Victor Hedman: Garners assist in win
Hedman logged an assist and two shots on goal in Sunday's 7-4 win over the Sabres.
Hedman has three goals and seven assists over his last nine contests. The 34-year-old defenseman is one of nine blueliners in the league to exceed 60 points this season, putting up 64 points (15 goals, 49 assists) with 176 shots on net, 130 blocked shots and a plus-17 rating over 77 appearances. He's one of the most important players in the Lightning's lineup, but it's unclear if he'll be rested ahead of the playoffs, as Darren Raddysh's undisclosed injury Sunday leaves Tampa Bay with just six healthy blueliners.

Lightning's Victor Hedman: Two power-play points in OT loss
Hedman scored a goal and added an assist, both on the power play, in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Maple Leafs.
Both points came in the third period, with Hedman's tally midway through the frame being the one that forced overtime. It was the veteran blueliner's third multi-point performance in the last seven games, a stretch in which he's collected three goals and nine points. Hedman is up to 15 goals on the season -- the fourth time in his career he's reached that plateau. Wednesday's effort also gives him 25 power-play points on the campaign, the sixth time he's hit that milestone.

Lightning's Victor Hedman: Among league's top defenders
Hedman had a goal and two assists in an 8-0 win over Utah on Thursday.
Hedman now has 57 points, including 13 goals, in 69 games this season, and he sits in a three-way tie with Rasmus Dahlin and Evan Bouchard for fourth in NHL scoring from the blue line. Hedman won't get a Norris nomination this year given the domination of Cale Makar, Zach Werenski and Quinn Hughes, but that doesn't diminish his effectiveness for the Bolts.

Lightning's Victor Hedman: Adds power-play assist
Hedman logged a power-play assist, two shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Golden Knights.
Hedman had been held off the scoresheet in the previous three games. That drought almost reached four, but he was able to help out on a Nikita Kucherov tally just before the third-period buzzer. The 34-year-old Hedman is up to 54 points (22 on the power play), 158 shots on net, 114 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating over 67 appearances. It's likely his best seasons have already happened, but Hedman remains a formidable scoring force from the blue line, especially as the quarterback of the Lightning's top-five power play, which is clicking at 25.8 percent this season.

Lightning's Victor Hedman: Status uncertain for Tuesday
Hedman (lower body) will be on the ice for warmups and is a game-time decision for Tuesday's road meeting with the Hurricanes, Gabby Shirley of FanDuel Sports Network Florida & Sun reports.
Hedman took the ice for pregame line rushes Saturday against the Bruins but ended up sitting out that contest, so his status will be worth monitoring leading up to puck drop Tuesday. If the veteran blueliner is unable to suit up against the Canes, Nick Perbix will draw back into the lineup. Hedman has provided 11 goals, 50 points and a plus-14 rating across 60 appearances in 2024-25.

Lightning's Victor Hedman: Late scratch
Contrary to a prior report, Hedman (lower body) will not play Saturday against the Bruins, according to Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times.
Hedman was on the ice for pregame line rushes, but his injury will keep him out of at least Saturday's lineup. Tampa Bay kicks off a three-game road trip against the Hurricanes on Tuesday. Due to Hedman's absence, Darren Raddysh will quarterback the No. 1 power-play unit against Boston.

Lightning's Victor Hedman: Game-time call Saturday
Hedman (undisclosed) is a game-time decision for Saturday's divisional matchup against Boston, according to Benjamin Pierce of the Lightning's official site.
Hedman was injured Thursday against the Sabres. If Hedman can't play, Nick Perbix will draw into the lineup, and Darren Raddysh will quarterback the No. 1 power-play unit. If Hedman misses his third game of the season, head coach Jon Cooper said the left-shot blueliner should be considered day-to-day. After Saturday's game, the Lightning will have two days off before a road meeting with the Hurricanes on Tuesday.

Lightning's Victor Hedman: Injured Thursday
Hedman suffered an undisclosed injury in Thursday's game versus the Sabres, and head coach Jon Cooper was uncertain about the defenseman's availability Saturday against the Bruins, Benjamin Pierce of the Lightning's official site reports.
Losing Hedman would be a massive blow to the Lightning's defense. He plays significant minutes in all situations and has earned 50 points over 60 contests this season. A status update may not be available until warmups Saturday, as the Lightning's game that day is a home matinee.

It was a milestone night for the defender -- Hedman passed Rob Blake for 20th in points by a defenseman in NHL history (778).

Lightning's Victor Hedman: Consistent goal scoring every year
Hedman scored a goal Tuesday in a 4-1 win over the Oilers.
Hedman scored on a slap shot from the point on a 5-on-3 power play. He now has nine goals, and he's one snipe shy of putting up double-digit goals for the 10th time in his last 12 seasons. Hedman's 45 points put him squarely in the top-10 in the NHL. He also has 96 blocked shots, which projects to 140 on the season -- that would be a new career mark if he can sustain the effort.
