TAMPA - Bad news coming today from the Bolts camp.  Vinny Lecavalier's upper body injury looks to be a fractured bone in his hand, or possibly a sprain.

Lecavalier was seen leaving the Forum after the morning skate with a soft cast on his right hand/wrist.

"It's real disappointing," Lecavalier told the Tampa Bay Times. "We're making a push and we're playing well. It's too bad I can't help my teammates."

Lecavalier said the injury occurred during Saturday's 2-1 win against the Capitals.  The injury may or may not keep Lecavalier off the ice for the rest the regular season.
