Stamkos posted this on X the morning of July 1:
“Thank you, Tampa. I don’t have the words yet ….. I will soon . It’s still too early to process. Just wanted everyone to know how thankful we are for 16 years as a bolt. My family and I are excited for the next chapter….”
The Lightning also recently said goodbye to Mikhail Sergachev who spent 7 seasons with the team, as well as Tanner Jeannot.
