Tyler Johnson in Lightning lineup for Game 1

Tyler Johnson is ready to go.

The Tampa Bay Lightning forward is in the lineup for Game 1 against the Detroit Red Wings on Wednesday night.

Johnson took part in the pregame warmup on a line with Alex Killorn and Nikita Kucherov.

He left Tampa Bay's regular-season finale Saturday with an injury after being hit late by Montreal Canadiens defenseman Greg Pateryn.

The Lightning are without Steven Stamkos and Anton Stralman, who aren't expected to play in the first-round series.
