Should have kept him in tampa
Just to throw him out like he was nothing. Smh
Wow. The Tampa Bay Lightning & Their Fans Honoring Steven Stamkos As He Moves To Nashville!
Awesome to see!
I just watched this live it was amazing Welcome home stammer 😢💙⚡️
They should have never got rid of stammer
As a Lightning fan myself since I have a Stamkos jersey I just have to say thank you Stammer. As always even in Nashville it's hammer time.
Welcome back, bro
❤
No friends when the puck drops 🏒
Stammer, you're still the GOAT! Don't ever let ANYONE ROB YOU OF YOUR JOY AND TALENT. WE LOVE YOU! 🏒🏒🏒🌟
They should’ve found a way to keep him. Stamkos in anything other than a Bolts sweater feels wrong.
We miss you Stammer…also to everyone saying they should’ve kept him look at where they are compared to Nashville. I love Stammer one of my favorite Bolts players but it was the right thing for this team look at a team like Pittsburgh being loyal to their aging players they’ve basically become irrelevant and have just gotten slower and worse
you could definitely see him tearing up. i don’t blame him
Only in such touching moments with tears in the eyes of a fan, you understand how cruel the hockey business is and how it doesn’t care about the players…
Only for a few seconds then they make him leave
Sad for him…. 😢
The stadium was louder than when we won the Cup 3 times. Salite to you Stamkos!
💙
Habs fan here but even I was disappointed when Stamkos left Tampa, they should’ve just kept him & let him retire as a Lightning ⚡️ 🫡 good luck in Nashville
Should have retired a Lightning. One of the classiest captains of the last 20 years.
he should have been there until he retired
Great to see Stammer back home on Tampa Ice!
Why would they do this in the middle of the game and not at the beginning of it???
Dumb move by Tampa to let him go. Cooper still wanted him I bet. He should have played his whole career there and retire. Some guys deserve that type of respect from their organization and he's one of them.
I'll love you forever Stammer, no matter what team you're on!!
