Tampa Bay Lightning recall Jakob Pelletier

Well, if nothing else, the Tampa Bay Lightning’s recent run of injuries is giving fans a chance to see some new players at the NHL level. Prior to their game against the Florida Panthers, the team announced yet another recall as forward Jakob Pelletier was brought up from the Syracuse Crunch. If Pelletier is in the line-up tonight, he will become the sixth player to make his Lightning debut this season, and they haven’t cracked the 20-game mark yet.

The Florida Panthers (9-7-1) will shoot for their second three-game winning streak of the season when they host the Tampa Bay Lightning (8-6-2) this evening at Amerant Bank Arena. Florida opened a five-game homestand with an exciting 6-3 romp over the Washington Capitals on Thursday that was chalk full of milestones.

Lightning lose to Rangers, 7-3

Could we go into a long detailed discussion about how the Tampa Bay Lightning lost this game to the New York Rangers, 7-3 ? Sure, but that would make us sad, and y’all angry (again). So let’s let one of our commenters sum up the game: Yup, that pretty much wraps things up in regards to how we feel about this game. The Lightning did not play well. Yes, they had some bad bounces, but the mistakes leading up to those bounces were, for the most part, unforced. They had worked hard over t...

Lightning recall Boris Katchouk and Scott Sabourin

The reinforcements have arrived. With the Tampa Bay Lightning ailing a bit, the team recalled a couple of veterans from the Syracuse Crunch. Forwards Boris Katchouk and Scott Sabourin caught the plane ride down from the bitter cold to the chilly, but much nicer Tampa weather to help bolster a squad that is a little down right now. With Dominic James definitely missing tonight’s action, and Pontus Holmberg probably out as well, the Bolts needed to add some depth to their bottom-six. Ryan M...

Ryan McDonagh, Dominic James placed on injured reserve by Lightning

The Tampa Bay Lightning picked up a win in their last outing, downing the Washington Capitals, 3-2, but it has proven to be a costly one as at least two of their key players suffered injuries that have reportedly landed them on injured reserve. Ryan McDonagh, who blocked a shot at the end of the first period, and Dominic James, who took a puck to the upper cheek area, will be out of action for at least one game. After practice Coach Jon Cooper let reporters know that McDonagh would be “ou...

Lightning prospect suspended for three games

In the Tampa Bay Lightning’s most recent draft class, there seemed to be a slightly more focused effort on bringing a bit more truculence into the organization. Ethan Czata, their second round pick, is a skilled forward that has a bit of an edge to his game. The same goes for one of their seventh-round picks from the 2025 draft, Grant Spada. Unfortunately, players that rely on physicality often cross the line, and that happened to the 6’5″ defenseman as he earned a three-game suspension from t...
