Which player do you dream to get down to Tampa?

[Jacko95]

Well the question is easy, I guess most of us have that one player that you hope one day will join us here down to Tampa. Who is it and why? Oh and please not Crosby/McDavid everyone

For me it has to be Chris Tanev. It was Josi a year or so ago, but I believe Tanev would be such an amazing fit with our system and I just love defenders that play the game the way he does, or for that instant Stralman does as well.

Um I don't know honestly. Ill be thrilled to keep TKO, Hedman, Stamkos and Drouin. So I'm going to go with them.

 

[VinikToWinIt]

Karlsson. I can dream can't I?

 

[The Macho King]

Karlsson. I can dream can't I?

Yeah, that'd be my top pick.

More reasonable possibilities would be a guy like Fayne. Cheap and could stabilize the third pairing.

 

[Houdas]

Any of the czech guys in NHL, let's say Voráček, Jágr (he's going to play until he's 50), Gudas (yeah, I was really sad), Krejčí, Pasta, Vrána, Zbořil...

Other guys would be Oshie, Karlsson or Kopitar, these guys are really great.

 

[Sky04]

Karlsson, Bergeron, Josi

 

[Volodya Krutov]

Karlsson, definitely. Hertl. More mixed feelings but I feel Kreider would do well under the Lightning uniform.

karlsson by a large margin thinking of him and hedmonster on rushes is truly unfair

 

[LightningStrikes]

Prime Chris Pronger. #dreams

 

[DFC]

Karlsson QBing our PP would make us instantly cup favorites.

 

[The Macho King]

Prime Chris Pronger. #dreams

One of my favorite players of all time, man...

 

[Brie]

I'd also say Karlsson...I also wouldn't mind OEL, or both. I feel both would thrive on a team like ours...and you can't really go wrong with Swedish 'd' as we all know.

Hedman - Karlsson
OEL - Stralman

Now that is a top-4.

 

[ganiseri]

Matt marttin, carl clutterbuck or tom wilson!!

 

[Maelmoor]

Hmm..I'm more concerned to keep those we have at the moment

 

[MrClutch86]

Unrealistic: Karlsson
Realistic: Roussel

 

[The Gongshow]

Everyones dream came true a few years ago when we got.. Matt Carle!!!!!

 

[TheTriplets]

Drouin - Stamkos - Voracek would be one heck of a line.

Bennett and Ehlers are two young players I think would look truly great on us, too.

And maybe the most realistic, I'd love to see Jagr in our uniform for once. If Florida's out of playoff contention at the deadline, make it happen, SY.

 

[2020 Cup Champions]

In order: Karlsson, Faulk, Tanev

 

[Rschmitz]

Karlsson or Weber

Reasoning, well. Karlsson is the best right handed offensive defenseman in the league, has an amazing shot, and would fit the system like a glove. Hedman could cover for him physically and defensively. On the other hand, Weber is the best overall physical right handed defenseman in the league, also can produce points with the best of them, and has an amazing shot as well. Would cover for Hedman physically and defensively allowing Hedman to become Hedmonster.

Luckily, we have Stralman.

 

[Jacko95]

Great answers here, though I am a little surprised at all the Hedman-Karlsson dreams.. I rather not have Hedman as the defense first guy on a pair..
Also Monahan would be a great fit here IMO.
