Report: There's a team-wide illness ravaging the Lightning locker room.

There have been rumors of a mystery illness running through the Tampa Bay Lightning locker room. First Bolts D-man Braydon Coburn was "sick" on the bench during Game 5 and afterwards rumors of "The Triplets" falling ill. The team refused to address these rumors of a bug affecting the team. Until now. On Wednesday, though, forward Alex Killorn all but made it official during a media conference call. “It’s tough,” Killorn said. “We had a few guys under the weather. Not that that’s any excuse. Most of the guys have been ready for games. Today is going to be huge, not only for injured guys, but guys feeling kind of sick. “We’re going to use those kind of days to get healthy. We’re not going to use that as an excuse.” The team will finally get a two day break in hopes of recovering prior to their all important Game 7 against the New york Rangers at Madison Square Garden. As for the club’s health, Lightning coach Jon Cooper danced around questions regarding it hinting that while players might be dealing with some sort of flu bug, we’d have to wait until the playoffs were over to get the full story. “Maybe after it’s all said and done, more things will come out what happened in our room,” Cooper said. “We’re putting the best lineup we can possible.”
