Lagace will start Thursday in Florida.
D. Raddysh will make his NHL debut on Thursday.
Cal Foote was added to the COVID-19 protocol list this morning, so Raddysh will suit up next to Sean Day. Raddysh had two assists in 13 games with Syracuse (AHL) earlier in the season.
The Stars placed Luke Glendening into COVID-19 protocol on Wednesday (Dec.29).
Adding Glendening, Jamie Benn and Ryan Suter to the COVID-19 reserve list brings the total to 11 Stars currently in protocol. It seems highly unlikely that Sunday's game in Arizona will be played.
Point (upper-body) will return to the Lightning lineup on Tuesday.
Point has not played since November 20th but will be back in the Lightning lineup vs. Montreal. His return should provide a huge boost to a Tampa team that is missing quite a few bodies due to COVID-19 protocol. Point is expected to centre a line with Alex Killorn and Mathieu Joseph.

Lagace will start Tuesday vs. the Canadiens.

Lagace was recalled from Syracuse (AHL) and is expected to start Tuesday.
Point (upper-body) will be a game-time decision on Tuesday.
Point was a full participant in Monday's practice and Lightning assistant coach Derek Lalonde said that he is in the "day-to-day category" but "might return tomorrow vs. Montreal." This would be a huge boost for the Lightning, who are missing six players due to COVID-19 protocol right now.
The Lightning placed Anthony Cirelli in COVID-19 protocol on Monday.
After placing four players in protocol on Sunday, Cirelli and Andrej Sustr were added on Monday morning. Luckily for the Lightning, Brayden Point was back on the ice for practice and may return to the lineup to replace Cirelli on Tuesday.
The Lightning placed Brian Elliott in COVID-19 protocol on Sunday.
The Lightning are set to play four games in six days this week but lost both goalies, Mikhail Sergachev and Pierre-Edouard Bellemare to COVID-19 on Sunday and both Anthony Cirelli and Andrej Sustr on Monday. With both Elliott and Andrei Vasilevskiy out, Maxime Lagace is expected to be promoted and start on Tuesday.
