Lightning captain Martin St. Louis is day-to-day with a lower-body injury and has reportedly been seen in a walking boot.

From the Tampa Bay Times:

St. Louis, who had two goals and three points in Tuesday’s 5-1 victory over the Kings, took a Drew Doughty slap shot off a foot about five minutes into the third period while killing a penalty. He finished the game but walked with a noticeable limp as he left the locker room after the game.

The Lightning (4-2-0) have home games Thursday versus the Wild and Saturday versus the Bruins. It’s not clear at this point if St. Louis will be available for either of those. The 38-year-old leads Tampa Bay with 10 points in six games.
