Simply put, what former (active) Lightning player in their current form would you add to the 2024 Lightning?
JAM. He knows how to win a cup along with his offense.
But why can’t I pick Marty?
A little surprising Miller only getting two votes considering he's the best player on the list, I guess it makes sense people would be sore, he teased superstar talent without ever rounding out and developing the consistency he now has in Vacouver.
My second vote would go to Gourde, miss his infectious pitbull attitude. You can't measure that in points though
He played his best hockey with Tampa when he came here in 2018 on a line with Kuch and Stamkos and was a point per game. What does Cooper do? Play him with Paquette!Cooper played him on the 3rd/4th line for half a year...

It was because he was a pain in the ass to deal with from all accounts i've received. He didn't get a ton of top line time because it sounded like he couldn't follow basic instructions and be relied upon in a few different situations, regardless of how good his shot was.A little surprising Miller only getting two votes considering he's the best player on the list, I guess it makes sense people would be sore, he teased superstar talent without ever rounding out and developing the consistency he now has in Vacouver.

Dunno though, based on some reports i've seen out of Vancouver it hasn't been much different...Some guys just need a swift kick in the ass. Being traded to Tampa wasn't it for him because he was going from an impending rebuild to another contender. Being traded from Tampa? Yup. That did it
