They didn’t follow the rules. They circumvented the rules. The league didn’t mean for teams to load up like this.Let’s see how good teams are if there is a playoff salary cap. Vegas. Florida this year is doing it too.

So Covid happens. Kucherov needs surgery. The season starts late. The lighting did not load up, they were just able to keep home grown talent on the roster.

Florida, my home state, is like a theme park for freedom and personal responsibility.

Lets go Lighning, Go pick up Michael McCarron...
