With a little help from Olivia Newton-John let's dissect how things went Saturday to land #TBLightning in a place they haven't been since the rookie campaign of Steven Stamkos, unfamiliar territory in the Jon Cooper era with #GoBolts indeed bit.ly/4h6QVSj

Back in Black: Andrei Vasilevskiy leads the #TBLightning on to the ice for pregame warmup as #GoBolts  host New Jersey

As #GoBolts  begin practice, Emil Lilleberg is absent, everyone else accounted for

#TBLightning start fast but finish slow to open the season and commit "cardinal sin" against Ottawa, plus it was quite an NHL debut for Curtis Douglas, the power play clicked and the lull happened to spoil Vasilevskiy's strong start for #GoBolts bit.ly/4h8u5cW

Curtis Douglas wastes no time introducing himself as he and McDermid drop the gloves 2:26 in #GoBolts

#GoBolts  Lines tonight are the same as this morning #TBLightning Guentzel-Point-Kucherov Hagel-Cirelli-Goncalves Bjorkstrand-Gourde-Chaffee Douglas-Holmberg-Geekie Hedman-Raddysh McDonagh-Cernak Lilleberg-Crozier Vasilevskiy Johansson

Curtis Douglas takes his rookie lap for his NHL debut as #GoBolts  host Ottawa for the season opener

New #GoBolts  forward Curtis Douglas set to make his NHL debut tonight, still “over the moon” to be here. “I got to shake Pat Maroon’s hand, that’s crazy.” #TBLightning

Congratulations, we made it! #GoBolts  first morning skate of the regular season

Leaving Las Vegas - an abandoned car, red eye flight and a trip to the mall, the 24-hour journey of Curtis Douglas from Salt Lake City to Vegas to Tampa after being claimed on waivers. He hopes he packed enough to arrive in the NHL w/ #GoBolts #TBLightning bit.ly/4ocEnuV

There was enough news surrounding the #TBLightning on Monday to fill a 125,000-seat stadium, from injury updates, a waiver claim, finalizing the opening roster, multiple suspensions and hefty fines, but #GoBolts were the only team disciplined by the NHL. bit.ly/4nBhYY5

For #GoBolts fans who have DirecTV stream as their television provider in the Tampa area, thought you'd like to know that The Spot Channel 66 is now available ahead of Thursday's #TBLightning season opener

#GoBolts have claimed 6-fooot-9, 240-pound winger Curtis Douglas off waivers from the Utah Mammoth. Former 4th round pick of Dallas in 2018. Played last three seasons in Tuscon (AHL), has combined 384 minutes in penalties past three years.

Turns out there was fallout from Saturday's penalty-pazoolza between #GoBolts & Panthers, but it only fell one way. Now #TBLightning face multiple suspensions, possible injuries as Monday's roster deadline looms after Sunday provided some roster clues bit.ly/4nyTAq7

Declan Carlile the only #GoBolts player on waivers today, so appears they will open the season with 3 goaltenders on the roster - Vasilevskiy, Johansson and Copley. Rosters are due to the league by 5 pm ET tomorrow #TBLightning Now we wait on any potential injuries/suspension

#TBLightning Panthers close out preseason by doubling down on their previous penalty, fight-filled affair as teams combine for 322 penalty minutes that saw five fights, 16 ejections, and one match penalty. Oh, and Andrei Vasilevskiy did play for #GoBolts bit.ly/4hfuoCZ

As #GoBolts get set to play their final preseason game in Vasilevskiy's debut, #TBLightning make six call ups as they are expected to sit many of their top players after Thursday's game led to 186 PIM, Panthers expect to do the same bit.ly/4ntw5ie

#GoBolts play preseason finale in Sunrise tonight and Andrei Vasilevskiy still on track to get the start. Pheonix Copely, picked up on waivers earlier this week, is expected to dress and I'd imagine will probably see some playing time as well. Rosters are due to the league on Mon

Been tied up for a bit today, so missed this earlier, but #GoBolts did place G Brandon Halverson on waivers today for the purpose of reassigning him to Syracuse. This still leaves #TBLightning with three goalies at the moment - Vasileskiy, Johansson and Pheonix Copley, who was at practice today

Asked Jon Cooper if there was any update on the four absent players (Hagel, Hedman, Raddysh, Cernak) from practice today: “The only updates for the status of players is whether they're going to play opening night, and everybody's so far scheduled to.” #GoBolts #TBLightning

Even in preseason, one little spark, er, sucker punch can ignite an inferno as Florida antics bring about fights, scuffles, scrums and line brawls as teams combine to fill up the scoresheet in penultimate preseason matchup #GoBolts #TBLightning bit.ly/3KvbQ5b

Jon Cooper characterized Brandon Hagel’s absence as precautionary “Everything is about being ready for the week from tonight, not tonight, so we just do everything to make sure we're looking after that.” #GoBolts #TBLightning

AJ Greer exits the box and Darren Raddysh wastes no time going after him for the hit on Hagel earlier in the game #GoBolts #TBLightning

#GoBolts made an interesting waiver claim one week before the start of the season by bringing in a goaltender, which could mean any number of things before the #TBLightning have to set their 23-man maximum roster ahead of Monday's deadline bit.ly/4gSfz99

While Andrei Vasilevskiy will not dress tonight, the belief is that he’s in line to play on Saturday in #GoBolts preseason finale in Sunrise #TBLightning

It’s one week until #GoBolts season opener, tonight is the final home preseason game as #TBLightning host Florida

#GoBolts make another round of cuts, which means the opening night roster looks to be all but set. Who's been reassigned, who's on waivers, who's left and what it means for the lineup when the season opens against Ottawa next week. #TBLightning bit.ly/47buSp5

#GoBolts make seven cuts from training camp, sending Dylan Duke, Wojciech Stachowiak, Scott Sabourin and Roman Schmidt to Syracuse and have placed Nick Abruzzese, Jakob Pelletier and Boris Katchouk on waivers for the purpose of sending them to Syracuse. (1/2)

After being part of the Brandon Hagel trade three years ago, Boris Katchouk returns to #TBLightning a more mature, experienced player fighting like hell to earn his way back to the NHL with #GoBolts "I want to stay in this league. I'm meant to be here.'' bit.ly/3KshrJy

Jonas Johansson leads the #TBLightning on to the ice at Kia Center as #GoBolts face Florida in preseason action

The captain overlooking practice today from behind the #GoBolts bench, Hedman has not skated with the team since leaving Friday’s preseason game #TBLightning

Pontus Holmberg, who has not practiced with the team since last Tuesday has joined the group for practice today as well, wearing a red (presumably no-contact) jersey. Players are still trickling in the ice but doesn’t appear Victor Hedman will be skating #GoBolts #TBLightning

Andrei Vasilevskiy comes out on the ice ahead of today’s non-game group practice #GoBolts #TBLightning

Lineups for tonight’s preseason game in Orlando, not exactly big names on either roster, but plenty of “bubble players” for #GoBolts

Scott Sabourin, who cleared waivers on Monday, has been recalled by #TBLightning ahead of tonight’s preseason game against Florida in Orlando #GoBolts

Andrei Vasilevskiy watch continued as #GoBolts entered the second week of training camp with a focus on fine tuning for the season while competition for roster spots goes to another level as roster decisions get sorted out after first cuts #TBLightning bit.ly/488bAmy

Jon Cooper said Andrei Vasilevskiy skated on his own this morning, anticipates Vasilevskiy will join the group for practice on Tuesday, but won’t play in Orlando. “It was promising day for him” Didn’t commit to him playing in any of the three remaining preseason, but it ruled out

Lines at the start of #GoBolts practice today Guentzel-Point-Kucherov Hagel-Cirelli-Goncalves Bjorkstrand-Gourde-Chaffee Geekie-Finley-Girgensons Moser-Crozier McDonagh-Cernak Lilleberg-Raddysh Carlile-Schmidt Johansson Halverson

And practice begins with Andrei Vasilevskiy not in the ice, Halverson and Johansson the only two goaltenders with the main group #GoBolts #TBLightning Victor Hedman also not practicing nor is Pontus Holmberg

Goalies come out for some work with goaltending coach Frantz Jean ahead practice as well, but just Johansson and Halverson. Jon Cooper said last week the expectation was that Andrei Vasilevskiy would return to practice today, we’ll see if he comes out for main practice

Small group of #GoBolts players on the ice this morning before main practice: Duke, Pelletier, Katchouk, Stachowiak, James and Abruzzese with EBUG Kyle Konin in net

#GoBolts make cuts from training camp today all heading to Syracuse camp which opens on Monday

Finally turning pro, Ethan Gauthier is ready to turn his game loose and make an impression on #GoBolts with a game that is fearless "I'll always be the first guy in the corner whether it hurts or not.'' #TBLightning bit.ly/3IN3FAF

After skating all camp with Cirelli and Hagel, Gage Goncalves is on a line tonight with Gourde and Chaffee Hagel-Cirelli-Geekie Goncalves-Gourde-Chaffee Allard-James-Sabourin Flinton-Finley-Mercuri McDonagh-Cernak D'Astous-Raddysh Carlile-Crozier Halverson Fanti #GoBolts
