Julien BriseBois made one of the biggest mistakes

Like last year, the Lightning are unable to advance past the first round. It was even more difficult against the Florida opponents.

Tampa Bay seems to have lost its luster since the double conquest of the Stanley Cup. The team is aging and the core is a little less efficient than in past years.

Kucherov and Stamkos had a great season, but it was more difficult for defender Hedman and goalie Vasilevsky. Not to mention the loss of Mikhail Sergachev on the blue line.

Julien BriseBois tried to breathe new life into his lineup with the acquisitions of Matt Dumba on defense and Anthony Duclair on offense.

However, a transaction made by the Quebec general manager could come to haunt him for a long time. That of Tanner Jeannot, in 2022.

The forward acquired from the Predators cost five draft picks. Five! And the production is not there at all. A major error from Julien BriseBois.
