Tanner Jeannot, the Lightning's key acquisition at the recent trade deadline, now faces the possibility of missing the playoffs due to this worrisome leg injury.
It's crucial to note that Tampa Bay specifically traded a substantial package to acquire Jeannot, with an eye on his potential contribution during the playoffs.
Here's a breakdown of the trade details:
Nashville received: defenseman Cal Foote (a first-round pick), a 2025 first-round pick (top 10 protected), a 2024 second-round pick, and 2023 third, fourth, and fifth-round picks.
Tampa Bay received: Tanner Jeannot
