Callahan (hip) is not expected to play during the Lightning's upcoming six-game road trip, Joe Smith of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

If this projection holds true, Callahan won't return to the ice until the team returns to Tampa Bay for a Jan. 31 matchup with the Bruins. It's been an injury-plagued campaign for the 31-year-old veteran, but he hasn't been particularly effective even when healthy -- he has just four points to go with a minus-4 rating in 18 games.
