Tampa Bay Lightning Top Ten Prospects: #10 Jonathan Marchessault

Jonathan Marchessault continues to follow a trend that the Tampa Bay Lightning organization has set when it comes to the success of developing undersized players.

Standing at only 5’9 163 lbs, Marchessault is far from the prototypical NHL size most team’s are looking for. However, he has proven time and time again that he will not let his size stop him from becoming a full time NHL player.

Jonathan Marchessault is a 24 year old forward from Cap-Roughe, QC, Canada. His main position throughout his career has been center, but over the years he has adapted to playing the wing since joining the Lightning organization.
