Lightning's Point Returns vs Maple Leafs

Tampa Bay Lightning forward Brayden Point returns from a lower-body injury to face the Toronto Maple Leafs Wednesday, missing 11 games and the Winter Olympics.

The Tampa Bay Lightning will get a big boost to their lineup in their first game since the Olympic break. Point, who missed 11 games with a lower-body injury suffered on January 12, was also forced to miss representing Canada at the Winter Olympics after being named to the initial roster.

The 29-year-old forward has had a solid season with 11 goals and 19 assists in 36 games. The Lightning sit first in the Eastern Conference with a 37-14-4 record coming out of the break.
