Lightning extend Charle-Edouard D’Astous

After getting booted in the first round of the playoffs last spring, Tampa Bay Lightning general manager Julien BriseBois didn’t wait until free agency started to begin fiddling with his roster. While the second round was still going on, the Lightning announced a free agent signing that was met with a collective shrug by just about everyone. We even passed it off as “not a game-changing pick…

Lightning end road trip with resounding 7-3 win over San Jose

So, we know what you’re wondering. When was the last time a Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman recorded a hat trick? Well, the answer is December 23, 2006 when Dan Boyle scored three times in the third period to help the Bolts take down the New York Rangers, 4-3. After almost two decades, a Lightning blueliner matched that feat as Darren Raddysh scored three times against the San Jose Sharks in Tampa…

2025 Tampa Bay Lightning Top 25 Under 25: #4 Jack Finley

The big guy is navigating his way through his first NHL season. There have been a few solid minutes spread between a lot of time in the press box. An injury recovery prior to the 2024-25 season probably set Jack Finley’s career back a season, but once he was on the ice in Syracuse he put together a solid season. He set a career-high in goals with 14 and added…

Lightning run winning streak to eight with 4-2 win over Avalanche

On a night the Tampa Bay Lightning celebrated head coach Jon Cooper’s 1,000th game as their head coach, his players honored him with a textbook win over the best team in the league as Brandon Hagel’s snapshot from the right circle in the third period snapped a 2-2 tie with the Colorado Avalanche.

2025 Tampa Bay Lightning Top 25 Under 25: #3 Emil Lilleberg

The Norwegian defenseman is currently out of the line-up with an injury, but will give the Tampa Bay Lightning a physical boost once he’s back. The 30,000-foot view of Emil Lilleberg as a prospect is that he is a solid defender that plays a physical game and has a few flaws that he may or may not develop out of as his experience grows. After debuting with the…

Looking back at the Tampa Bay Lightning’s December performance

Sure, it’s a couple of days late, but we’ll just blame the post-holiday brain fog for the timing. As the Tampa Bay Lightning cool their heels for a couple of days, it’s not a bad time to take a look at how things went in a busy December. After righting their season with a blazing-hot November, things were a bit more…chaotic in December. The month started with four losses (not great).

Lightning prospect part of blockbuster junior hockey trade

It’s been a busy first half of the season for Tampa Bay Lightning prospect Sam O’Reilly. It started with him leaving the organization that drafted him as Edmonton dealt him to Tampa Bay for Isaac Howard. Then he was named to Team Canada for the World Juniors where he netted 8 points (4 goals, 4 assists) in 7 games on his way to a bronze medal. Now, he’s leaving the only junior hockey team that he’…

Reacting to The Athletic’s Trade Board 3.0 – vibes only edition

With the holidays over, and the Olympic break looming, we’re officially into trade season. How do we know? Well, because trades are happening! Okay, so Laurent Brossoit for Jake Furlong isn’t exactly a blockbuster, but it does get things rolling, right? With the trade deadline less than two weeks after everyone is back from the Olympics, it’s not out of the realm of possibility that general…

Decisions will have to be made when healthy players return

The Tampa Bay Lightning have ascended to the top of the Eastern Conference on the back of a solid offense and a surprisingly competent defense considering it’s comprised of three players that, if the season had played out as expected, would have been freezing in Syracuse instead of enjoying the sun and fun of Florida. Charle-Edouard D’Astous (19:07), Declan Carlile (14:09), and Max Crozier (15:30)…

Number 9, Number 9, Number 9 in a row for the Lightning as they down the Flyers, 7-2

All signs pointed to this being a close game, and it was. Till it wasn’t. Goals by Gage Goncalves and Brandon Hagel just over a minute apart early in the third period turned a close game into a big win for the Lightning as they put seven pucks past Sam Ersson on just 23 shots to start their road trip with a 7-2 win. Goncalves finished with two goals while Nikita Kucherov kept his hot streak going…

Brayden Point leaves game early with lower-body injury

Things were starting to cook for the Tampa Bay Lightning in the second game against the Philadelphia Flyers in three nights. After they made it through a tight-checking first period with a 1-0 lead thanks to an early goal by Pontus Holmberg, they doubled the lead just 30 seconds into the second period when Jake Guentzel deflected home a shot from Erik Cernak. Four minutes later…

Lightning run streak to ten games with 5-1 win over Flyers

This should have such a fun night. The Tampa Bay Lightning picked up their tenth win a row. Jon Cooper won his 600th game as a head coach. Nikita Kucherov rolled off yet another multi-point game (his ninth in a row). Jake Guentzel joined Brandon Hagel and Kucherov in the 20-goal club for the season. The power play scored twice in the 5-1 win over the Philadelphia Flyers. Yet, one play casts a…

Lightning match franchise record in 2-1 shootout win over Penguins

It took a little longer than most of the games in this stretch, but the Tampa Bay Lightning picked up their franchise-best 11th win in a row as they took down the Pittsburgh Penguins, 2-1, in a shootout. It was a goaltending battle as Andrei Vasilevskiy picked up his 350th career win by stopping 26-of-27 shots while Arturs Silovs matched him shot-for-shot in regulation with 30 saves.

2025 Tampa Bay Lightning Top 25 Under 25: #2 Gage Goncalves

The Portuguese Pistol makes it back up to the number two spot in the countdown based on a strong finish to his season. After a slow start to the 2025-26 season, it appears Gage Goncalves is starting to get back to that type of production. As this countdown has dragged on much, much longer than anticipated, we’ve tried to keep the focus on the player’s performance…
