As we catch up on some news from around the Tampa Bay Lightning stratosphere, it looks three more members of the team won’t be enjoying an extra long break in February. Earlier this week, three more forwards were added to their country’s rosters for the inaugural tournament.
Jake Guentzel will join Team USA while Brandon Hagel and Anthony Cirelli will suit up for Team Canada. That brings the Lightning’s total number of players involved in the 4 Nations Face-off to five, as Victor Hedman (Team Sweden) and Brayden Point (Team Canada) had already been announced.
With five players going, the Lightning are tied with the Rangers, Wild, and Avalanche for third-most players participating.
