Lightning Could Target Fan-Favorite From Canadiens' System if Things Go South in Tampa
Marco Normandin has just revealed another exclusive report, this time involving the Montreal Canadiens and the Tampa Bay Lightning.
According to his information, the Lightning could dip into the Canadiens' system and steal a fan-favorite from both the organization and the Laval Rocket - Pascal Vincent.
As you may already know, there are several surprising rumors currently circulating about the possible departure of Jon Cooper from Tampa Bay (to Utah).
Clearly, the AHL's top coach for the 2024-2025 season is drawing attention from NHL teams.
Pascal Vincent with the Tampa Bay Lightning?
Here's the key excerpt from Normandin's article:
"I'm told to keep a very close eye on Julien BriseBois and the Tampa Bay Lightning in this situation (regarding Pascal Vincent).
According to a well-placed source in the hockey world, I've been informed that the rumors linking Jon Cooper to the Utah Mammoth are indeed well-founded, and that he will be joining his good friend, team owner Ryan Smith."

He's referring here to the following rumor:
Please note that Normandin received this scoop after BriseBois stated in a press conference that Cooper would be back with the Lightning, which makes things even more intriguing.
"I'm told that if Cooper does leave, Pascal Vincent would be the Lightning's number one candidate to replace him behind the bench in Tampa Bay."
- Marco Normandin
This will definitely be a situation to follow closely!
