Lightning's Brayden Point: Not playing Friday

Point (undisclosed) is not on the ice for warmups, indicating he won't play Friday's Game 5 versus the Avalanche, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

Point will miss a third straight game with the injury, which may be an aggravation of his previous leg injury. The center's absence won't be made worse since Anthony Cirelli (arm) is on track to play in Friday's must-win contest.
