Martin St. Louis gives honest take on Steven Stamkos leaving for Predators |
Many never believed that Steven Stamkos would ever leave the Tampa Bay Lightning. Head coach Jon Cooper certainly wanted him to return to Tampa Bay, as did the fans. In fact, it happened 10 years ago with Martin St. Louis. St. Louis is now the head coach of the Montreal Canadiens. |

Lightning Round: Flyers ink forward to long-term deal |
Who had Travis Konecny as the NHL's next $70 million man? The Flyers inked their top forward to an 8-year, $8.75 million AAV deal on Thursday [Broad Street Hockey].In 76 games last year, the 27-year-old put up 68 points (33 goals, 35 assists) to lead the team in scoring. In addition to becoming the highest paid Flyer when the deal kicks in next season, Konecny has a full no-move clause for the first six seasons (which will take him to age 34, and then a limited no-trade clause for the final two seasons. As a Tampa Bay Lightning captain that left for another organization, Marty St. Louis has a unique perspective on what Steven Stamkos is going through this summer. |

2023-24 Tampa Bay Lightning Player Reviews: Nick Perbix |
If there is a defining characteristic to Nick Perbix, it's that he is unflappable. Nick Perbix is better than you remembered him being. The unassuming Olympian appeared in 77 regular season games and 2 playoff games before an injury to his AC joint ended his season slightly ahead of his teammates. Perbix is one of those players that, for some reason, provokes wildly emotional responses from the fan base. |

Lightning's Brayden Point's Elite Shooting Percentage Is Sustainable |
Shooting percentage (SH%) is one of the most fascinating statistics in the NHL. The rate is dividing the shots on goal that go in the net by the total shots on goal. Often, shooting percentage helps predict future goal-scoring outcomes. When a player consistently posts a high shooting percentage, this typically means they are a talented shooter not driven by luck. |

2024-25 Schedule: Superstar matchups coming to St. Louis |
Beasts from the East: Nov. 2 vs. Toronto Maple Leafs Nov. 5 vs. Tampa Bay Lightning Nov. 9 vs. Washington Capitals Nov. 12 vs. Boston Bruins The Blues get their inter-conference work in early this season, facing a slate of the Eastern Conference's biggest names over a 10-day stretch just weeks into the season. Toronto's Auston Matthews is coming off a career-best 69 goals last season, the highest total from any NHL player since the days of Mario Lemieux and Wayne Gretzky. Though the Lightning lost Steven Stamkos to the Predators this offseason (more on him later), Tampa Bay still boasts two of the game's biggest stars: Nikita Kucherov, the reigning Art Ross Trophy recipient as the NHL's point |

2023-24 Tampa Bay Lightning Player Reviews: Nick Paul |
When everything was said and done, Nick Paul had himself a pretty strong season. Unlike the 2022-23 season where he started off hot and then went ice-cold in the second half of the season, Paul managed to score consistently throughout the season and ended up with a career-high 46 points in his age 28 season. According to some metrics, Nick Paul might have provided one of the best values on the team last season. |

Howard striving to become part of 'winning culture' with Lightning |
There is little doubt Isaac Howard will one day bring a winning attitude to the Tampa Bay Lightning. The 20-year-old forward prospect, selected by the Lightning in the first round (No. 31) of the 2022 NHL Draft, is coming off a season of success, including a Big Ten title at Michigan State and a gold medal with the United States in the 2024 IIHF World Junior Championship. Howard, from Hudson, Wisconsin, led the U.S. with seven goals in the World Juniors and was the leading scorer for Michigan State (25-10-3, 16-6-2 Big Ten) with 36 points (eight goals, 28 assists) in 36 games, one season after transferring from Minnesota Duluth. |

Utah Hockey Club's 2024 free agency grade |
Shortly before free agent frenzy kicked off on July 1, the Utah Hockey Club didn't have a single NHL defenseman under contract. The league's newest franchise had nothing but cap space heading into free agency, and new owner Ryan Smith made it clear he wanted to make a splash after the organization relocated from Tempe to Salt Lake City earlier this year. |

Predators' 2024 free agency grade |
The first wave of the National Hockey League free agency period has come to a close, and there was a whirlwind of activity that saw plenty of the bigger names change destinations. Former Tampa Bay Lightning captain and future Hall of Fame forward Steven Stamkos was lured to Nashville after 16 years with the Bolts, signing a four-year contract with an AAV of $8 million. This marks arguably the biggest free-agent signing in club history since they entered the NHL as an expansion franchise in 1998. Also arriving in Nashville was forward Jonathan Marchessault, formerly of the Vegas Golden Knights. |

Utah Should Take a Swing At Ducks' Zegras |
Utah Hockey Club's GM Bill Armstrong has taken some mighty big swings this off-season. On the second day of the draft, he acquired Mikhail Sergachev from the Tampa Bay Lightning and John Marino from the New Jersey Devils. Now that they have essentially rebuilt 2/3's of their blue line, the focus ... |

Lightning Need Vasilevskiy to Rebound Following Career-Worst Season |
Widely regarded as one the best goalies in the NHL, Andrei Vasilevskiy had the worst statistical season of his career last season. In September, the 29-year-old had surgery to repair a herniated lumbar disc in his back, according to Chris Bengel at CBS Sports, and he didn't return until Nov. 24 against the Carolina Hurricanes, when he recorded 22 saves on 24 shots. Given his injury and late start to the season, Vasilevskiy was far from peak performance. How do his numbers from last season stack up compared to the rest of his career? |

3 best Lightning trade targets in 2024 NHL offseason |
The Florida Panthers began taking that crown last season when they made the Stanley Cup Final but solidified their place as the best when they won the Cup this season. The Panthers added insult to injury by eliminating the Lightning in five games in the first round of the postseason, a series that wasn't even as close as the duration would suggest. The Panthers dominated the first three games, then sleepwalked through Game 4 before finishing the job in Game 5. The Lightning made some moves this offseason, but they must target a few trades to remain contenders in the NHL. |
