Speculation: 2024-2025 General Lightning Discussion I

[Felonious Python]

Any update on Point?

The Lightning didn't practice today, so no updates.

 

[OffBy1]

Is he still rubbing his groin?

Questions I didn't think I'd see for 500 Alex.

 

[Rschmitz]

If it helps him, I'm willing

 

[Felonious Python]

virtually the same as Ryan Warsofsky.



and Paul Maurice, for that matter.

It’s awesome they added this instead of waiting until the following year. I also will say this years game is as good as it’s been in years. Still not perfect but I’ll take it over previous years.

Interested to see how long Goncalves will be up. He got better as the game went on last night.

Some interesting names I would be looking at from Nashville.

ROR
Fabbro
Lauzon


ROR would be such a good addition to the top 6 and he's under a steal of a contract too

Would be interested in Tomasino. He hasn't fit in Brunette's offense and there's a ton of talent there. Just not sure Cooper would be interested in developing him further and give him the right opportunity.

 

[DFC]

ROR probably turns us into a legit contender.

We might be able to shut down entire top-sixes. Or pair him and Cirelli to kill a big line.

might be able to fix the PK too and be our faceoff guy in the top 6 so we stop putting Glendening out in key situations

If they are looking to rebuild it would make sense for them to get rid of the older players and put players like Tomasino and Evangelista in bigger roles. Its hard to tell what they are going to do with guys like Marchessault, Stammer and Josi who all would be too old for a rebuild but Marchy and Stammer just got there, maybe they wait a year or two and then retain cap if things remain bad

 

[JoVel]

Nashville should send us Stamkos at 50% while paying assets to get rid of him.

 

[These Are The Days]

Nashville should send us Stamkos at 50% while paying assets to get rid of him.

I don't know how we make the money work at 50% I think we'd have to do something like get rid of Paul

ROR is ideal
Fabbro sucks
Lauzon indifference

No chance we pull someone like Tommasino out of Nashville.

It might be close at the deadline with the accrued cap space we have. Then next year the cap increase pays for it.

What I’m not sure about is if it’s illegal to acquire a player at 50% less than a year after letting them walk.

Probably all a moot point as I don’t see Nashville ever retaining for 4 years.

We are still owed restitution for Jeannots time spent here.

I don't mind if it doesn't work with the cap. What's the NHL going to do, ban us?
