Lightning Comings And Goings

In keeping track of the transactions of the Sabres Atlantic Division rivals, the Tampa Bay Lightning appear to be reorganizing after losing to Toronto in the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. The Lightning getting to three straight Cup Finals took its toll on the club physically but also in terms of their organizational depth and their management of their roster under the salary cap. Tampa still has their core group intact, but may not have the support structure to advance in the postseason.
