Jeannot Out Injured
A string of crucial injuries has hit the team, with one, in particular, raising alarm bells.
"Head coach Jon Cooper expressed to the media that his concern regarding Tanner Jeannot's leg injury was 'high... of course.'" The Lightning's key acquisition at the recent trade deadline, Tanner Jeannot, is now at risk of missing the playoffs due to a troubling leg injury.
It's important to remember that Tampa Bay specifically shelled out a considerable package to secure Jeannot for his potential impact during the playoffs.
Here were the trade details:
Nashville received: defenseman Cal Foote (a first-round pick), a 2025 first-round pick (top 10 protected), a 2024 second-round pick, and 2023 third, fourth, and fifth-round picks.
Tampa Bay received: Tanner Jeannot
This unfolding situation is certainly one to watch closely, as Tampa Bay will have tough competition against the Maple Leafs in the first round.
