Several current members of the Lightning have a good shot at making the Hockey Hall of Fame. Steven Stamkos has the strongest case at the moment, on track to exceed 500 career goals and 1,000 career points. As the captain for two of their Stanley Cup runs, Stamkos is also a six-time All-Star and a two-time Richard Trophy winner as the league’s leading goal-scorer.
Goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy has an excellent chance to make the Hall as well. Vasilevskiy backstopped both of Tampa Bay’s back-to-back Cup wins in 2020 and 2021, winning the Conn Smythe Trophy as the playoffs’ most valuable player for his 2021 performance.
He won the Vezina Trophy as the league’s top goaltender in 2019, is a three-time All-Star, and is already sixth on the list of all-time Russian goaltender wins; he also leads all Russian goaltenders in career save percentage (minimum 50 games played).
Defenseman Victor Hedman needs a few more productive seasons, but he is off to a great start. Hedman was the 2020 Conn Smythe winner, a three-time All-Star, won the Norris Trophy as the league’s best defenseman, and has several major international accolades, including IIHF Gold in 2017. He is already the sixth-highest scoring Swedish defenseman in NHL history.
