There are a lot of things you can say about this season’s Tampa Bay Lightning. Some of those things might even be of the negative variety. One thing that you can’t say is that this team doesn’t put out the effort. There have been some games over the past few seasons where the work ethic of the Lightning could be questioned. This season, there does seem to be a bit more of a desperation in their game overall. On Saturday night, despite being down three goals, they didn’t stop playing and clawed...
The V ancouver Canucks appear to be open for business after trading their franchise defenseman Quinn Hughes and getting four assets back. But they don't seem to be entirely packing it in and fully rebuilding. That being said, there are still some players that are available to other teams to trade for as the Canucks are lower in the standings and have to still make up some ground. Bruce Garrioch reported, "(Kiefer Sherwood) has attracted interest from the Bruins, Islanders, Lightning, Stars, an...

The cracks were bound to appear at some point. When a team is ravaged by injuries to the extent that the Tampa Bay Lightning have been, the magic wears off eventually. It’s usually nothing drastic, but small little fissures that appear and keep a team from winning. From an overall perspective, the Lightning played fairly well in their 2-1 loss to the Los Angeles Kings on Thursday night, but one moment, one little error in judgement, led to the game-deciding goal.
The Bolts had the lead ea...

Technically, a week before Christmas is still “before Christmas”. That’s the timeline head coach Jon Cooper gave reporters prior to the Lightning’s 5-2 loss to the Florida Panthers when he was asked about the health of Andrei Vasilevskiy. On Tuesday, the Lightning made a couple of moves that would indicate that their all-world goaltender is ready to return to action.
The team announced that Scott Sabourin and Brandon Halverson had been assigned to Syracuse . There does remain the chance t...
The Florida Panthers finished off its four-game road trip in fine fashion, rolling to a 5-2 win over the division-leading Tampa Bay Lightning at Benchmark International Arena.
A hooking call on Niko Mikkola gave the Lightning an early man-advantage, but it was the Panthers who’d get the opening goal at the 2:16 mark.
After Sam Reinhart got a piece of Darren Raddysh’s shot, Aaron Ekblad settled the puck and sent Reinhart away with Anton Lundell on a 2-on-1 break. Raddysh laid out to t...
It’s hard to call a play that happens roughly five minutes into the game a turning point, but when the Florida Panthers scored their second goal of the game mere seconds after Yanni Gourde glanced a shot at an open net off of the crossbar, the feeling that it was going to be one of those nights was there. The two early goals, and some key goaltending by Sergei Bobrovsky, forced the Lightning to chase a deficit they could never overcome as they dropped the game 5-2 to the Florida Panthers.

The Habs went 2-1-1 during the second week of December, and sit third in the Atlantic Division with a record of 17-11-4.
It started with another full-on embarrassment at home, a 6-1 beatdown courtesy of the Tampa Bay Lightning on Tuesday. The Habs then took to the road, with Jacob Fowler getting his first NHL regular-season start against the Pittsburgh Penguins after the Habs hit the organizational panic button – calling up Fowler, Adam Engström and Owen Beck.

Conor Garland is among the many Vancouver Canucks players who have come up in the rumor mill this season. If the Canucks officially shop Garland, look for these three teams to be in the mix for his services. Tampa Bay Lightning The Lightning are never afraid to make a big move, and they should be aggressive again this season. A player like Garland could grab their attention, as he would have the potential to give their top six a major boost if acquired. Boston Bruins Th...
Well, at least the Tampa Bay Lightning finally scored more than one goal against Ilya Sorokin. After giving up two early goals, the Bolts battled back with goals from Darren Raddysh (on the power play) and J.J. Moser to tie the New York Islanders. Overtime solved nothing, and Sorokin stopped two of the Lightning’s three shootout attempts while Mathew Barzal and Emil Heineman were able to slip pucks past Jonas Johansson to earn the extra points in a 3-2 victory.

The Islanders found themselves momentarily in first place in the Eastern Conference by total points (if not pts. percentage) on Dec. 13, 2025, after sweeping the Tampa Bay Lightning with the third win over the previous first-holders in the past couple of weeks.

If nothing else, at least now the Tampa Bay Lightning have some clarity as to their captain, Victor Hedman. On Friday, the team announced that the soon-to-be 35-year-old defenseman would undergo elbow surgery on Monday in order to repair an injury that has kept him sidelined for a long stretch of time starting in early November.
For The Big Swede, the timeline places him back in competitive action in early February (possibly in time for the Stadium Series game against Boston), but more li...
