Initially I was nervous about tonight's game until something happened that put it into perspective. Hockey is less important than physical health, and I hope that Callahan gets well soon.

Ryan Callahan is having an emergency appendectomy tonight. Definitely out for Game 6. Return undetermined. #TBLightning

Who plays on Stamkos's wing in the absence of Callahan?

Me: "What is an appendectomy?" Siri: "A surgical procedure whereby Jonathan Drouin is inserted into the lineup."

But in all seriousness, my thoughts are with Callahan and his family.
