Girardi laid on the ice for several minutes and needed help getting off before going straight to the dressing room.
He was later ruled out for the rest of the game, but the Lightning said initial reports indicated he was okay
Girardi had opened the scoring earlier in the contest, and also assisted on Tyler Johnson's goal.
