Lightning's Victor Hedman: Not playing Wednesday

Hedman (undisclosed) will not play Wednesday versus the Rangers, Benjamin Pierce of the Lightning's official site reports.

Hedman will be forced to miss at least one game due to the injury. The 34-year-old defenseman's absence will be covered by Max Crozier, who is returning from an undisclosed injury of his own. Hedman's next chance to play is Saturday's road matchup against the Panthers.
