The Tampa Bay Lightning are going to lose a significant portion of their roster this offseason, key players that helped the team win back-to-back Stanley Cups.
A lot of the roster holes opened up by this summer's cap crunch will have to be filled organically by players knocking on the door of the National Hockey League according to general manager Julien BriseBois, prospects in the system like Taylor Raddysh, Boris Katchouk and Alex Barre-Boulet to go along with players such as Mathieu Joseph, Cal Foote and Mitchell Stephens who have already seen significant time in the League with the Bolts.
