Benjamin Pierce with the Tampa Bay Lightning said Ryan McDonagh will be out for a couple of games, according to head coach Jon Cooper.

McDonagh left Saturday's game in the first period after a shot block.

Pierce noted Dominic James and Nick Paul are not quite day-to-day yet. Victor Hedman and Pontus Holmberg are day-to-day.

Nearly all Lightning games will be broadcast live on The Spot – Tampa Bay 66 (WXPX-TV) and will also be streamed here.
