Head coach Jon Cooper said that Guentzel (upper body) is day-to-day ahead of Thursday's road matchup against the Sharks, per Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times.

Guentzel missed his first game of the season in Sunday's 5-2 loss to Montreal. Cooper also said, "The game's not for a couple more days. There's been improvements since a couple games ago, so hopefully that continues and see what happens." The 30-year-old Guentzel was able to participate in Tuesday's morning skate in a non-contact jersey. Given that he hasn't been cleared for contact yet, the Nebraska native's status will be worth monitoring as the Lightning gear up for a three-game road trip through California. The star winger has provided 20 goals and 37 points through 33 appearances in 2024-25.
