Hedman (personal) is taking a temporary leave of absence, the Lightning announced Wednesday.
Hedman missed Tampa Bay's past three games due to an illness, which has led to Emil Lilleberg playing regularly. Hedman has a goal and 17 points in 33 appearances in 2025-26. He will regain his top-four role once he's ready to return.
