Sergachev blocked a shot and exited Tuesday's game versus the Kraken late in the third period, Gabby Shirley of Bally Sports Florida reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sergachev had a productive game yet again, racking up two assists, three blocked shots, two hits and two shots on goal before his exit. It's possible this was just a stinger of a block -- more on his status should be available before Thursday's game versus the Blue Jackets. Sergachev is up to five goals, 22 helpers, 13 power-play points, 59 blocks, 35 hits and 48 shots on net in 28 contests overall.

Sergachev scored a goal in Saturday's 4-1 win over Florida.
EDGE Analysis
It was a bit of gift -- he popped it into an open net after Sergei Bobrovsky got tangled with Bolt forward Pierre-Edouard Bellemare in front of the crease. After a review, the goal counted. It was Sergachev's first goal in 12 games, but his 11th point in that span. His breakout season continues.

Sergachev picked up an assist Saturday in a 4-3 overtime victory over the Maple Leafs.
EDGE Analysis
It came on the power play. Sergachev has nine assists, including six with the man advantage, in his last 10 games, but his last goal came November 13 against the Caps. Still, the talented young defender has 23 points (four goals, 19 assists) in 24 games and sits fourth in team scoring behind Nikita Kucherov, Steven Stamkos and Brayden Point. Sergachev is 13 points ahead of the next defender on the team (Victor Hedman; 10 points).

Sergachev had two assists in Thursday's 4-1 win over Calgary.
EDGE Analysis
He has seven points (two goals, five assists) during a three-game point streak. Sergachev's game has taken a massive step forward in all zones. His 17 points (four goals, 13 assists) in 17 games this season make him the top Bolts' scorer from the blue line. And put him squarely in the top-10 scoring list for defenders.

Sergachev collected two goals and two assists during the first period of Sunday's 6-3 win over the Capitals.
EDGE Analysis
Sergachev became the first defenseman to register four first-period points since Toronto's Morgan Rielly accomplished the feat on Oct. 15, 2019. The 2016 first-round draft pick started quickly, beating goalie Darcy Kuemper on the first shot of Sunday's matchup. Sergachev's second tally, sandwiched between two first-period helpers, capped a four-goal frame. Sergachev added three shots, three hits and plus-2 rating against the Capitals.

Sergachev (undisclosed) is expected to play Sunday against Washington, Eduardo A. Encina of The Tampa Bay Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sergachev was on the ice for the morning skate after blocking a shot Friday versus the Capitals. Tampa Bay won't have blueliners Cal Foote (upper body) and Erik Cernak (undisclosed) in the lineup, so Sergachev could see some additional playing time.

Sergachev suffered an undisclosed injury in the third period of Friday's 5-1 loss to Washington, per Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.
EDGE Analysis
Sergachev was hurt while blocking a shot from Alex Ovechkin. Lightning coach Jon Cooper didn't have an update after the game other than to say that he hopes Sergachev will be okay. If Sergachev is out of action then it will be a major blow to the Lightning, especially given that defensemen Cal Foote (undisclosed) and Erik Cernak (undisclosed) were also injured Friday. Nick Perbix in particular might play a bigger role while the Lightning deal with these injuries.

Sergachev picked up a power-play assist in a 4-3 shootout loss to Carolina on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Sergachev's game has taken a massive step forward this season. His passes have been sublime -- almost Nikita Kucherov-esque. He has three points in his last two games and eight (two goals, six assists) in his last seven games. Sergachev's ice time as up to a season-high 29:21 with Victor Hedman out with an upper-body malady.
