Victor Hedman to Be Out Until February

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman is scheduled to undergo elbow surgery on Monday and will be out until February. Hedman has already missed significant time this season and will be sidelined once again after aggravating a previous injury. He made just three appearances after a 12-game spell out. Hedman is expected to be fully ready for the Olympics tournament, which begins on Feb. 11. Declan Carlile took Hedman's spot in the lineup Thursday against the New Jersey Devils and could now have a regular role for several weeks. Meanwhile, Darren Raddysh's fantasy prospects continue to grow. He has become Tampa's top defenseman, eating up huge minutes and posting multiple points in back-to-back games.

Victor Hedman Placed on Injured Reserve

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman (undisclosed) will miss at least one week of action after he was placed on Injured Reserve. Hedman only recently returned from a 12-game absence. Now, he must sit out at least three games due to an undisclosed injury he sustained during Tuesday's win over the Montreal Canadiens. Hedman's absence will begin on Thursday night against the New Jersey Devils. To bolster its defensive depth, Tampa Bay has recalled Declan Carlile from the minors to take Hedman's spot on the roster. The major beneficiary of Hedman's injury will be Darren Raddysh, who has locked down a position on the first power-play unit. Raddysh is also seeing big minutes during even-strength play and has totaled 17 points (four goals, 13 assists) over his last 13 appearances.

Victor Hedman Suffers New Injury Blow

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman (undisclosed) picked up another injury in Tuesday's win over the Montreal Canadiens. He was playing his third game after a nearly month-long injury layoff. Tampa's defensive star may now have to miss more time. Hedman's injury issues this season have given a massive boost to Darren Raddysh's fantasy stock. He has been a regular on the top power-play unit, logging at least 22 minutes of ice time in nine consecutive games. Raddysh has two of Tampa's goals in Tuesday's 6-1 victory. He has posted 20 points (five goals, 15 assists) in 24 games.

Victor Hedman Expected to Return Saturday

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman (undisclosed) has been labeled as probable for Saturday's matchup against the New York Islanders, Erik Erlendsson of LightningInsider.com reports. The star rearguard has missed nearly a month of action due to an undisclosed injury. Hedman had a four-game assist streak before exiting the lineup. Overall, he has dished out 12 assists in 15 games this season. The 34-year-old has yet to score despite firing 23 shots on goal. Darren Raddysh has done an incredible job on defense for Tampa during Hedman's absence, but he must settle for a lesser role when he returns.

Victor Hedman Out for "Couple of Weeks"

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman (undisclosed) is not expected to return to the lineup before December. Ahead of Thursday's clash against the Edmonton Oilers, Lightning head coach Jon Cooper said that Hedman is "probably a couple of weeks away still." Tampa's No. 1 defenseman has already missed one week of action, sitting out four games. Darren Raddysh has taken on a massive workload on the Lightning blue line and is expected to have another busy night on Thursday. Since Hedman exited the lineup, Raddysh has notched four points (one goal, three assists) in four games, averaging over 22 minutes of ice time.

Victor Hedman Questionable for Tuesday

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman (undisclosed) is considered questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the New Jersey Devils. The former Norris Trophy winner practiced on Monday but may remain sidelined for a fourth consecutive game. With Ryan McDonagh (undisclosed) also battling an injury, J.J. Moser and Darren Raddysh have taken on extra work on the Tampa blue line. Of the two players, Raddysh has more fantasy appeal, as he receives usage on the top power-play unit. Raddysh has averaged around five minutes of power-play time over the past three games. However, the Lightning's performance with the man advantage has been subpar this season, as the team is converting only 15.3 percent of its opportunities.

Victor Hedman Iffy for Wednesday

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman (undisclosed) missed a second consecutive practice on Tuesday, leaving his status uncertain for Wednesday's matchup against the New York Rangers. On Saturday against the Washington Capitals, Hedman extended his assists streak to four games. However, he was limited to a season-low 17:51 of ice time and may now have to miss his first game of the season. In 15 outings, Hedman has yet to score with 23 shots, but he leads the Lightning with 12 assists. Ryan McDonagh (undisclosed) has already been ruled out for Wednesday's game, so the team must bring in defensive reinforcements from the minors if Max Crozier (undisclosed) isn't ready to go.

Victor Hedman Exits Preseason Game Early

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman (undisclosed) didn't finish Friday's 6-5 preseason win against the Carolina Hurricanes. The Lightning captain left the action after the first period. Hedman notched one assist before exiting. Hedman's departure on Friday might worry some fantasy managers, but fortunately, Lightning head coach Jon Cooper stated that the Swedish blue-liner was removed from the game for precautionary reasons. Hedman has been one of the most productive defensemen in the league for several years and still has a lot to offer even as he approaches his 35th birthday.

Victor Hedman Nursing Broken Right Foot

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman finished the season with a broken foot. Lightning general manager Julien BriseBois revealed on Friday that Hedman broke his right foot in Monday's Game 4 against the Florida Panthers. Despite the injury, Hedman led all skaters in ice time with 26:37 and had two assists in Game 5. The former Norris Trophy winner was wearing a walking boot during his season-ending media press conference on Friday. Hedman's production dipped a bit in 2024-25, but he remained among the highest-scoring defensemen in the league, with 66 points (15 goals, 51 assists) in 79 games. He is expected to be back to 100 percent for the start of next season.

Victor Hedman A Game-Time Call On Tuesday

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman (lower body) is a game-time decision for Tuesday's contest against the Carolina Hurricanes. Hedman was able to participate during Tuesday's morning skate, which is a good sign he should be cleared to return to action. The 34-year-old sustained this injury during Thursday's contest. He was initially in line to return on Saturday but was a late scratch. If Hedman were to remain sidelined, Nick Perbix would remain in the starting lineup. Before Thursday's contest, Hedman tallied eight points (four goals) across his last seven contests. During this span, Hedman logged 18 blocked shots with a +6 rating. Through 60 games, the 34-year-old has tallied 50 points with 30 hits and 104 blocked shots. If he were to return, he would be a solid option in DFS formats as he sees top minutes on the Tampa blue line.

Victor Hedman Exits Thursday's Contest Early

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman (undisclosed) exited Thursday's contest against the Buffalo Sabres. Hedman exited the game in the opening frame and did not return. After the contest, head coach Jon Cooper said "We'll see tomorrow. It's tough to lose him anytime. hopefully, we'll see about Saturday." Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status leading up to their next contest on Saturday afternoon against the Boston Bruins. Before leaving the game, Hedman logged just under three minutes of ice time and did not get on the scoresheet. Over his previous five games, Hedman has tallied six points (three goals) with three of the points coming on the power-play. If Hedman were to miss time, Darren Raddysh will likely have an increased role on the power-play and Nick Perbix would draw into the starting lineup.

Victor Hedman Departs Thursday's Game Early

According to Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times, Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman (head) left Thursday's game early. The star defenseman was struck in the head by a puck in the final frame. After the injury he did not return. Following the game, head coach Jon Cooper did not provide any update on his status. Fantasy managers should continue to pay close attention to his status leading up to their next game on Saturday against the Los Angeles Kings. Before departing, the 34-year-old tallied one shot on goal with two blocks. If Hedman were to miss time, Ryan McDonagh would likely move up to the top pairing and play alongside Darren Raddysh.

Victor Hedman On Track To Return Tuesday

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman (lower body) appears ready to rejoin the lineup for Tuesday's matchup against Columbus. Lightning insider Erik Erlendsson has reported that Hedman took part in Tuesday's morning skate and worked with the first power-play unit, which is a good indicator that he will be available for the game. The former Norris Trophy winner has been out for a couple of contests with a lower-body injury. Hedman is on track for a second consecutive 70-point campaign, sitting on four goals and 21 assists through 26 appearances. Nearly half of his points (11) have come on the power play. More could follow on Tuesday, as the Blue Jackets have one of the league's worst penalty-killing records at 72.9 percent.

Victor Hedman Day-To-Day With A Lower-Body Injury

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman (lower body) is considered day-to-day. The former Norris Trophy winner was a late scratch for Thursday's matchup against Calgary. Hedman's role can not be underestimated on this Tampa Bay team. He's among the league's most productive defensemen offensively, with 25 points (four goals, 21 assists) in 26 outings, and ranks second on the team with 47 blocks. Steven Santini played instead of Hedman on Thursday, with the entire blue line putting in extra work. Janis Moser (undisclosed) was also lost during the contest, making things even more difficult for Tampa Bay in defense. Ryan McDonagh and Darren Raddysh soaked in the most action among the Lightning blue-liners, with the latter logging four minutes of power-play time.

Victor Hedman Notches Three Assists In Season-Opening Win

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman tallied three assists in Friday's season-opening 4-1 win over Carolina. He collected two helpers on the power play and had one on an empty-net goal. The new Lightning captain logged one block and two hits on the defensive end while having two shots on goal and finishing with a plus-one rating in 23:11 of ice time. Hedman is a Rolls-Royce defenseman, and the captaincy might further elevate his game in 2024-25. Tampa Bay was scheduled to have a rematch with the Hurricanes on Saturday, but the game has been postponed. The team returns to action Tuesday night versus the Canucks, who have struggled in their first couple of outings of the season.

Victor Hedman Posts Two Assists In Game 2

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman finished Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss to Florida with two assists. Hedman's good eye for a pass helped the Lightning erase a two-goal deficit in the game, but the team couldn't escape a second loss in the series. With the effort, Hedman tied Bobby Orr for the 10th most multi-point playoff games in NHL history by a defenseman. It was his 26th such outing. The former Norris Trophy winner will now have a bit of momentum ahead of Game 3 after going scoreless with a minus-two rating in the series opener.

Victor Hedman Sends Out Three Assists In Thursday's Win

Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman collected three assists as the former cup champs beat the reigning holders, the Vegas Golden Knights, 5-4 on Thursday. He had a two-point second period to spark a comeback from a 2-0 deficit, and Hedman added his third helper late in the game when Nicholas Paul broke a 4-4 tie with a little over a minute left in regulation. Following a quiet spell, Hedman has started to build himself a point streak, having found his way on the score sheet in three consecutive games. He's up to 32 points (five goals, 27 assists) in as many games, which puts him very close to his career-best scoring pace of 1.04 points per game.
