Top Lightning News

  • Lightning's Scott Sabourin: Inks one-year deal

    Sabourin signed a one-year, two-way contract with Tampa Bay on Sunday.

    Sabourin compiled 10 goals, 25 points and 111 PIM across 68 regular-season games with AHL San Jose in 2024-25. The 32-year-old forward has two goals, eight points and 58 PIM in 47 career NHL regular-season appearances. However, he will probably spend most, if not all, of the 2025-26 campaign in the minors.

  • Lightning's Sam O'Reilly: Flipped to Tampa

    O'Reilly was traded to the Lightning from the Oilers on Tuesday in exchange for Isaac Howard.

    Howard was not interested in signing with the Lightning, so the 2022 first-round pick was flipped for O'Reilly, who the Oilers selected 32nd overall in 2024. He's farther back in the development pipeline compared to Howard, which is fine for a Lightning team that can afford to be patient. O'Reilly logged 71 points in 62 regular-season games, 22 points in 17 playoff contests and five points in five outings during the Memorial Cup for OHL London in 2024-25. Those are fine numbers, but O'Reilly projects as a middle-six option once he gets to the NHL. The 19-year-old will likely spend all of 2025-26 with London again.

  • Lightning's Jakob Pelletier: Links up with Bolts

    Pelletier signed a three-year, $2.525 million contract with the Lightning on Tuesday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.

    Pelletier's deal is a two-way pact in the first season before moving to a one-way deal in the last two years. The 24-year-old will get a fresh start in an organization that has gotten good results out of unheralded depth players before. He had a total of 19 points in 49 outings between the Flames and the Flyers last season.

  • Lightning's Boris Katchouk: Inks one-year contract

    Katchouk signed a one-year, two-way contract with Tampa Bay on Tuesday.

    Katchouk recorded 21 goals and 49 points in 67 regular-season appearances with AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton in 2024-25. The 27-year-old forward may spend most of the 2025-26 campaign in the minors, but he will compete for a depth role with the Lightning during training camp.

  • Lightning's Simon Lundmark: Signs two-way contract

    Lundmark agreed to terms on a two-year, two-way contract with Tampa Bay on Tuesday.

    Lundmark spent the past four seasons playing for AHL Manitoba without ever reaching the 20-point threshold. Selected by the Jets in the second round of the 2019 NHL Draft, the organization was likely hoping for more out of the blueliner, hence the decision not to give him a qualifying offer. With his new organization, Lundmark figures to be primarily a minor-league depth option and probably shouldn't be expected to see much, if any, NHL action this year.

  • Lightning's Pontus Holmberg: Lands two-year contract

    Holmberg signed a two-year, $3.1 million contract with Tampa Bay on Tuesday, Darren Dreger of TSN reports.

    Holmberg produced seven goals, 19 points, 68 shots on net, 53 blocked shots and 46 hits across 68 regular-season appearances with Toronto in 2024-25. He will likely occupy a bottom-six role with the Lightning in the 2025-26 campaign.

  • Lightning's Nick Abruzzese: Signs one-year deal

    Abruzzese signed a one-year, two-way contract with Tampa Bay on Tuesday.

    Abruzzese produced 15 goals and 43 points in 71 regular-season games with AHL Toronto in 2024-25. The 26-year-old forward will compete for a depth role with the Lightning during training camp but might spend most of the 2025-26 campaign in the minors.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Lightning's Ryan Fanti: Grabs one-year deal

    Fanti signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Lightning on Tuesday.

    Fanti has yet to make his NHL debut and seems unlikely to do so this season either, as the Bolts are firmly cemented at the No. 1 and 2 spots on the NHL roster. In fact, Brandon Halverson projects as the first-choice call-up should the Lightning need to bring somebody up from the minors.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Lightning's Tristan Allard: Inks entry-level deal

    Allard signed a two-year, entry-level contract with Tampa Bay on Tuesday.

    Allard had seven goals, nine assists and 36 PIM across 45 regular-season appearances with AHL Syracuse in 2024-25. The 23-year-old forward has spent the last two years in the minors and doesn't have any NHL experience yet. He will probably spend most, if not all, of the 2025-26 campaign in the minors.

  • Lightning's Gage Goncalves: Staying in Tampa Bay

    Goncalves signed a two-year, $2.4 million contract with the Lightning on Tuesday.

    In his first full campaign with Tampa Bay, Goncalves provided eight goals, 20 points, 71 hits and a plus-7 rating over 60 regular-season appearances. The 24-year-old, selected by the Lightning in the second round of the 2020 NHL Draft, will likely receive middle-six minutes in 2025-26, though he's capable of playing up and down the lineup.

  • Lightning's Conor Sheary: Headed for contract termination

    Sheary was placed on unconditional waivers Sunday by the Lightning for the purpose of a contract termination, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

    Sheary, who had one year left on his contract at $2 million, has opted for a contract termination with the hopes of latching on elsewhere as an NHL player next season. The 33-year-old played just five games with the Lightning in 2024-25, spending most of the season at AHL Syracuse, where he had 20 goals and 41 assists in 59 games played. It was the first time he saw time in the AHL since the 2015-16 season. Assuming he clears, he'll join the class of unrestricted free agents July 1.

  • Lightning's Ethan Czata: Nabbed by Tampa in Round 2

    Czata was the 56th overall pick by Tampa Bay in the 2025 NHL Entry Draft on Saturday.

    Although not known for his offense, Czata saw his scoring numbers increase dramatically in 2024-25. He managed 21 goals and 55 points in 68 regular-season outings for OHL Niagara, after finishing the 2023-24 regular season with seven goals and 17 points in 62 appearances. Czata has decent size (6-foot-1 and 175 pounds) and is known for both his physicality and work ethic. He could develop into a future third-line center for Tampa Bay if everything breaks correctly.

  • Lightning's Jack Finley: Agrees to three-year contract

    Finley signed a three-year, $2.325 million contract with Tampa Bay on Sunday.

    Finley had 14 goals and 28 points in 40 regular-season appearances with AHL Syracuse in 2024-25. He made his NHL debut in a 6-2 loss to Boston on Jan. 14, posting one shot on goal and one hit in 8:25 of ice time. The 22-year-old forward will probably spend most, if not all, of the 2025-26 campaign in the minors.

  • Lightning's Max Crozier: Signs three-year deal

    Crozier inked a three-year, $2.325 million contract with Tampa Bay on Friday. The agreement is two-way for the 2025-26 campaign, but it converts to a one-way contract for the remainder of the term.

    Crozier had nine goals, 34 points and 75 PIM across 52 regular-season appearances with AHL Syracuse in 2024-25. The 25-year-old defenseman also has two assists, seven PIM and 27 hits in 18 career NHL outings with Tampa Bay. The structure of the deal suggests that the Lightning see Crozier as someone who might be able to maintain a role on the NHL roster by 2026-27. In the meantime, Crozier will compete for an Opening Night spot with Tampa Bay during training camp, but he'll likely start next season in the minors.
