Tampa Bay Lightning coach Jon Cooper says star centre Brayden Point will be a game-time decision for Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final on Monday against the Colorado Avalanche.
Point, who did not participate in the morning skate, has one assist in the first two games of the series, which Tampa trails 2-0.
Point returned for the opener against Colorado after missing the past two series with a lower-body injury suffered in Game 7 of the Lightning's first-round series against the Toronto Mpale Leafs.
Point has two goals and three assists in nine playoff games this year. He had 28 goals and 30 assists in 66 regular-season games.
Meanwhile, Cooper said goalie Andrei Vasilevskiy, who missed morning skate, is fine and will be ready for Game 3.
Watch Game 3 on Monday at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT on Sportsnet.
