In the 16th installment of our 2021 32-Beats series, Joe Smith joins Ben Burnett to break down the 2020/21 Lightning season and discuss what we can expect in 2021/22 and beyond. Topics discussed include: Are there any lingering injury concerns for Nikita Kucherov and Steven Stamkos? Can Brayden Point channel his playoff dominance to get back to point per game production? Does Ondrej Palat have more room to grow from an offensive standpoint? How will losing Yanni Gourde, Blake Coleman, Barclay Goodrow, and Tyler Johnson impact the Bolts next year? Does Brian Elliott's arrival give Andrei Vasilevskiy more leeway to rest? Can Mikhail Sergachev eke out more of an offensive role behind Victor Hedman? Which prospects stand to make a difference for the Bolts down the road? And much more!
