Lightning News & Notes

Just gonna be a short blog for all who are wanting a update to what's happening in the lightning world. <br /><br /> This past sunday the lightning walked away from the draft with 2 great prospects, they are Jonathan Drouin and Adam Erne. Drouin has a great shot at cracking the lightning lineup next fall. While Erne could be 2-4 years away from the big league. <br /><br /> On Monday the lightning sent out qualifying offers to Mark Barberio, Jt Brown, and Dan Sexton. Beniot Pouliot did not recieve a qualifying offer which makes him a UFA. I've heard rumors Stevie Y had not intention of resigning him and he is most likely to go to another team now. Speaking of other teams, the flyers have signed Vincent Lecavalier to a 5 year contract. The former TBL captain was bought out by TBL in which they saved 7.7 in cap space.<br /><br /> Tampa bay currently has $8.5 million in cap space in which they must find a 2nd line centre and a 4-6 pairing defenseman. Possibilities as free agents are mike ribeiro for a F or rob scuderi, and keith ballard as a D. <br /><br /> Thats all for now, my next blog will consist of possible trades the TBL can make or attept.
