Which member of the Tampa Bay farm system is most likely to have an impact in the NHL with the Bolts in 2016-17?
Let’s accept right now that the system, nicknamed Tampacuse, is vital to where the franchise goes with how players progress and compete. Commonly, young prospects aren’t rushed to Tampa Bay (or out of Syracuse for that matter) so they can work on their attitudes and game with peers and without the pressure that the NHL-level brings.
It’s all part of a process of becoming and achievement. The question still stands about who could have the biggest impact this upcoming season, with thanks to the Lightning roster largely staying stolid (in fact, a notable addition to the roster from free agency was Cory Conacher – who was a member of the organization until spring 2013).
