Lightning give up massive haul for Predators forward
The Tampa Bay Lightning have joined the rest of the top Atlantic Division teams by has bolstering their lineup via trade, however, they gave up a massive haul.
The Lightning made a deal with the Nashville Predators for forward Tanner Jeannot, but as Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman shared, the return is shockingly large:
Jeannot return is Cal Foote, First in 2025. Second in 2024. Third fourth and fifth in 2023.
Jeannot, who's in just his second full season in the NHL, has recorded 5 goals and 9 assists through 56 games. Tampa's probably hoping for the Jeannot from his rookie season last year, as he collected 24 goals and 17 assists in 81 games.
Despite giving up a lot of assets, the Lightning are following the formula that's gotten them to three consecutive Stanley Cup Finals. Paying �'too much'' for a middle-six winger and most likely extend them to a team friendly deal.
As they did by acquiring Barclay Goodrow, Blake Coleman, Nick Paul and Brandon Hagel in previous years.
