Lightning's Nick Paul: In action against Ottawa
Paul (undisclosed) will suit up versus Ottawa on Thursday, Benjamin Pierce of the Lightning's official site reports.
Paul will avoid missing any games after being forced to exit Tuesday's tilt with the Senators after just 1:17 of ice time. The 29-year-old center is currently stuck in a rut with a five-game pointless streak during which he has generated 10 shots and 10 hits.

Paul tallied late in the second period to bring the Lightning within a goal. The 29-year-old has enjoyed a strong January with five goals and three assists over 13 contests in a middle-six role. He's up to 14 tallies, 28 points, 76 shots on net, 37 hits, 20 PIM and a plus-1 rating over 41 appearances.

Lightning's Nick Paul: Seven points in last eight games
Paul scored twice in a 5-3 loss to the Maple Leafs on Monday.
Paul's last multi-point game was over a month ago on Dec. 17 when he put up three points, but that's not really what you expect from him. He has seven points (four goals, including two on the power play, and three assists) in his last eight games and 27 points (13 goals, 14 assists) in 39 games. That puts Paul on a 52-point pace, and that would be a career high. It's come at the expense of some physicality -- Paul has just 35 hits after putting up three consecutive seasons with at least 104. That doesn't affect all managers, but it's clear his game has evolved. Paul can help in deep formats.

Paul scored an empty-net goal and added three hits in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Penguins.

Lightning's Nick Paul: First power-play goal of season
Paul scored a power-play goal in Tuesday's 3-2 win over Carolina.
Paul jammed in a rebound in the second period to put the Bolts up 2-1. It was his first point in five games, and his first power-play goal of the season. Paul had gone on a bit of a rip starting before the holiday break (three goals, three assists) in five games. However, he remains prone to surges and slips in production that keep his managers frustrated by his lack of consistency.

He's now at nine goals, 20 points, 44 shots on net, 23 hits, 18 PIM and a plus-5 rating through 27 contests overall.

Paul missed six games in November due to an undisclosed injury but has been putting up decent numbers since his return, tallying three goals and five total points in eight appearances in December. The 29-year-old is up to eight goals this season, though his chances to keep producing won't be very high since he remains rooted in a bottom-six role.

Lightning's Nick Paul: Three-point outburst
Paul had a goal and two assists in a 5-3 win over Columbus on Tuesday.
It was a big night for Paul, who started the season with an outstanding October (nine points in 10 games) but had struggled to rebound after missing time with an injury. This game snapped a four-game scoreless streak. Paul is a decent mid-level fantasy contributor in deep formats, that is if this game signals a return to his potential. He won't often put up big games, but he can deliver secondary scoring.

Lightning's Nick Paul: Won't play again in November
Paul (undisclosed) is expected to miss at least another week, ruling him out for the Lightning's next four games, Erik Erlendsson of LightningInsider.com reports Monday.
It's a tough week for Paul to be sidelined with an injury considering Tampa Bay has four games this week, all of which the winger will miss, before playing just twice the following week. After a blazing start to the season saw the Ontario native rack up 11 points in the first 12 games, he was limited to just two points in the five contests before he got hurt. Without Paul in the lineup, the team has been utilizing seven defensemen and could continue to do so over the next four games.

Lightning's Nick Paul: Out Saturday
Paul (undisclosed) isn't expected to play Saturday versus Dallas, per Erik Erlendsson of LightningInsider.com.
Paul will miss his second straight game. He has five goals and 13 points in 17 appearances in 2024-25. Tampa Bay will dress seven defensemen Saturday, including Darren Raddysh, who was a healthy scratch Thursday against Columbus. Paul's next chance to play will come Monday versus the Avalanche.

Lightning's Nick Paul: Ruled out versus Jackets
Paul (undisclosed) will not be in the lineup against Columbus on Thursday after head coach Jon Cooper told reporters, "He will be out tonight so we will reevaluate him in Tampa when we get back," per Gabby Shirley of FanDuel Sports Network Florida & Sun.
Paul will be sidelined for the first time this season, having played in all 17 games for the Bolts. In those outings, the 29-year-old winger has notched five goals, eight assists and 25 shots while averaging 16:24 of ice time. As long as Paul doesn't spend a significant chunk of time on the shelf, he should be capable of reaching both the 20-goal and 40-point thresholds for the second consecutive campaign.

Lightning's Nick Paul: Leaves Tuesday's game
Paul left Tuesday's game versus the Penguins with an undisclosed injury, and there wasn't an update on his status, Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Paul will be evaluated further Wednesday. The 29-year-old left midway through Tuesday's contest, logging 10:38 of ice time with three shots on goal and one hit. If Paul can't play Thursday against the Blue Jackets, Cam Atkinson or Nick Perbix could enter the lineup.

Lightning's Nick Paul: Tallies in shutout win
Paul scored a goal and went plus-2 in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Devils.
Paul has four points over six games in November. The 29-year-old forward is up to five goals, eight helpers, 22 shots on net, 18 hits and a plus-2 rating through 16 appearances this season. That's a pace that would put him over the 50-point mark for the first time in his career. Paul is handling a second-line role and a spot on the second power-play unit and looks like a good fit there and as a depth forward in fantasy.
