The Tampa Bay Lightning may not have the same kind of history as a team like the Montreal Canadiens, the Boston Bruins, or any other of the National Hockey League’s “Original Six” teams, but in the 24 years the Lightning has been in existence, they have experienced more than their fair share of record-breaking and newsworthy moments.
One of the most notable moments in Tampa Bay Lightning history dates all the way back to the Lightning’s very inception. In 1992, the Tampa Bay Lightning signed a young goaltender by the name of Manon Rheaume.
