Lightning head coach Jon Cooper discussed Sergachev's potential return, saying, it's a lot better than most originally thought.
According to Lightning beat writer Chris Krenn, Cooper expressed optimism about Sergachev's recovery, hinting at a possible return if the Lightning advance past the Panthers.
Sergachev, who hasn't played since February 7th due to a lower body injury requiring surgery, was seen on the ice yesterday, a positive development for Lightning fans. However, it's uncertain if he'll see game time during the playoffs.
Despite challenges, Lightning fans have reason to be hopeful, as the team continues to defy expectations.
