Since the Lightning are in town, and considering Oliver Moore ‘s performance on Thursday night, it’s worth revisiting a trade lots of Blackhawks fans weren’t thrilled about when it happened.
On March 18, 2022, the Blackhawks traded Brandon Hagel to Tampa Bay for Taylor Raddysh, Boris Katchouk and two first-round picks (2023, 2024). It was the first trade consummated by Kyle Davidson as the permanent general manager of the Chicago Blackhawks.

On January 18th in 2023, a fart sound was heard on Sportsnet during the Tampa Bay Lightning and Vancouver Canucks broadcast. Without skipping a beat, Canucks play-by-play legend John Shorthouse quipped to his partner John Garrett "Was that you?". Cheech denied it and Fartgate was born.
The moment in question occurred when netminder Colin Delia slid to his left whilst corralling an Alex

The Tampa Bay Lightning made a rare appearance at Benchmark International Arena on Tuesday night and treated their home fans to a 4-1 victory over the San Jose Sharks. In just their second home game of the month, the Lightning scored twice within 1:28 in the second period to turn a 1-1 game into a 3-1 lead. They never looked back, or really let the Sharks into the game, as they cruised to their second win a row and 14th straight game with a point.

It may not have been their prettiest win of the season, but it was, at least in the words of their head coach, “it was a pretty damn good effort”, as the Tampa Bay Lightning picked up their fourth win on their five-game road trip, defeating the Dallas Stars, 4-1. Andrei Vasilevskiy earned first star of the game honors with a 19-save effort, highlighted by stoning Jason Robertson on a breakaway in the waning seconds of the first period with the score tied at one.

The Nashville Predators have turned things around after another horrible start to the season; they're only one point out of a Wild Card spot heading into Saturday's play. But GM Barry Trotz is aware that his team isn't quite a serious contender, and is still considering his options. One of his biggest trade chips, under the right circumstances, is Steven Stamkos. Like the team itself, Stamkos has had a huge resurgence over the past couple of months. 17 goals and 28 points in his l...

If nothing else, tonight’s loss by the Tampa Bay Lightning is a perfect example of why it’s so hard to string long winning streaks together in the NHL. Despite statistically dominating the St. Louis Blues for most of the night, the Lightning saw their eleven-game winning streak come to a halt as they fell in a shootout, 3-2.
It’s not often a team puts up a heat map like that and ends up on the losing side. Yet, that’s what happened as the Lightning ran into a hot goaltender in Joel H...
The Tampa Bay Lightning may not have had the best start to the season, but they have proven themselves to be a powerhouse just past the halfway point in the season. As a top team in the Eastern Conference, they are going to be making additions and could go after someone they traded for at the trade deadline a number of years ago. Chris Johnston said, "Would it at all be surprising...just knowing the way the Lightning operate, if they circle back on a guy like Blake Coleman?" Unless the Calgary...

It was just one week ago, the Flyers were tied with Toronto heading into overtime. They had won three of their previous four games, and tried to take the second point in the extra session from the Maple Leafs. The overtime was highly entertaining, with Matvei Michkov and Sean Couturier having golden chances to end it. However, they didn’t. The Leafs went back down the ice and scored to win the game. It didn’t seem like a huge deal. Philadelphia gained a point. Onto the Lightning.
Well, we...
Lightning struck twice in the playoffs, and continues to do so in 2025-26.
The Philadelphia Flyers hit the road looking to get back on track after two blowout losses against the Tampa Bay Lightning to end a four-game homestand. Philadelphia has now lost three games in a row, going back to the overtime defeat against Toronto, and could be staring a five-game losing streak in the face if they lose tonight, as they’re just 2-3-1 in the second half of back-to-backs this season.
The Flyers did get some good news on Wednesday morning, though, with defenseman Jamie Dry...
On Monday night in Philadelphia, Tampa Bay center Brayden Point suffered a right knee injury and needed help getting off the ice.

Reports on Tuesday are that the injury is “not good.”

On Saturday night, against the red-hot Tampa Bay Lightning, the Philadelphia Flyers aspired to take two points. Or at least get a loser point from the formidable foe. They were playing them again on Monday night for an oddly slated two-game miniseries with both games at Xfinity Mobile Arena. But after giving up the first goal to a wide-open Nikita Kucherov less than two minutes in, Philadelphia’s Garnet Hathaway’s first of the year tied things up. After that, Ersson should’ve settled down. Sho...
