System Analysis
The Lightning's prospect pool is shallow after years of Cup contention, but it has some intriguing pieces. The strength lies in forwards like O'Reilly, Duke and Gauthier, who provide a mix of skill and physicality. The system lacks high-end defensive or goaltending prospects, limiting its overall impact.
