Équipe: 2020-21 Lightning de Tampa Bay

Date de création initiale: 21 déc. 2020

Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

Brisebois has a lot to do and now with the NHLPA and the owners coming together the countdown has started. My final predictions are below. I believe JBB is going to have to overpay this offseason. I hope Hugo Alenfelt plays well for Sweden in the upcoming world juniors to boost his trade value.
Couburn is not buried he’s on the taxi squad with his AHL cap hit thus why I put him in the minors

ABB, Volkov and Joseph will be rotating with each other with ABB and Volkov getting more 2nd line time and Joseph playing 3rd line minutes moving Coleman up to the 2nd line RW. Curtis McElhinney is capable enough where he can play more games without the need for a 3rd goaltender to play unless there’s injury.

I’m unhappy with the division Tampa is in since I was really looking forward to the Boston and Toronto matchups during the season. I hope they don’t get lazy like they did near the end of the 18-19 season which IMO was part of the reason they got destroyed during the playoffs. It could be cool though if Stamkos scores a lot because of the division their in and he’s up for another Rocket Richard trophy.
