Chatter and speculation but the Lightning stand pat and select the Moose Jaw Warrior with their pick.
The Tampa Bay Lightning's long day, immersed in speculation and chatter, ends with the #27 overall selection of the 1st round in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft being Brett Howden, a 6'2", left handed center who plays for the Moose Jaw Warriors of the WHL.
Through the day, the Bolts had been tied to speculative chatter with regards to various players on the roster, but it came up most prominently in the afternoon with talk of the Calgary Flames and goaltender Ben Bishop.
