Ondrej Palat will forever be the prime example of the Tampa Bay Lightning’s ability to find talent in late rounds. Could Noah Steen be the next example? Name Noah Steen Position Forward Age (as of October 1, 2026) 22 Height/Weight 6’1, 194 lbs. Expected 2026-27 Team Syracuse Crunch Draft – Year, Round 2024, 7th (199) Previous Rankings Not Ranked JustinG. Ranking 19 Final Rank 12 Stats: Our Thoughts: Can a career be defined by one play? Especially for a seventh-round pick that has yet to play in the NHL? In the case of Noah Steen, the answer may be yes. That play: NOAH STEEN OT HERO‼️ #MensWorlds #IIHF pic.twitter.com/noVLGvcZu4 — IIHF (@IIHFHockey) May 31, 2026 Steen’s overtime goal against Canada in the World Championships locked in Norway’s first medal, a bronze, in the history of that tournament. If nothing else, he’ll always be able to hang his hat on that accomplishment. The goal itself was prototypical of what Steen does on the ice. In his own zone he won a board battle to force a turnover which caught Canada outnumbered. He drove to the net on the ensuing two-on-one and then snapped a shot past the goaltender for the win. He’s a hardworking, pest of a player that skates a little bit better than one imagines and has a little bit more offensive talent than teams may expect. In short, the perfect candidate to be a bottom-six forward that can kill penalties and chip in the occasional goal while getting under the skin of opponents. He’s the type of player that won’t put up gaudy numbers but quietly help his team tilt the ice in their direction. After a 22-point season with Orebro HK of the SHL, the 22-year-old signed his entry-level contract with the Lightning and joined the Syracuse Crunch on an ATO for a brief seven-game stint in the AHL, in which he recorded his first North American goal. Expect him to spend the 2026-27 season with the Crunch as he competes for a spot in their forward group while getting some time on the penalty kill. With things a little crowded in Salt City there could be the possibility he spends a little time in Orlando, but having played 103 regular season games in the SHL over the last two seasons, he likely has a leg up on some of the other prospects competing for a spot in the roster. Like the vast majority of the forwards in the Lightning’s prospect barrel, his path to the NHL isn’t going to be lined with sparkling goals and dazzling assists. Rather it will be pushed forward along the boards and in the dirty areas in front of the net. He does have a strong transition game and can be dangerous off of the rush which could lead to some offense short-handed (honestly, the Lightning penalty kill in 2029 could be really lethal if some of these kids evolve to their expected levels). His skating is good but could use some refinement. He has decent size, and while he isn’t overly aggressive, he’s also not afraid to stick his nose into a scrum or let an opponent taste the outside of an unwashed glove. His ability to play a physical brand of hockey will be tested this year in the AHL, and if he finds success, the NHL could be within the grasp of the seventh-round pick in a couple of seasons. There is a little bit of Yanni Gourde in his game. Gourde might have slightly better offensive instincts, but Steen plays with that same sort of relentless energy that exhausts other teams. Steen’s goal against Canada in the bronze medal game capped off a World Championship tournament that heightened his profile from run-of-the-mill late-round pick to potential diamond-in-the-rough. It was his seventh of the tournament, which tied him for the overall lead with old friend Rudolfs Balcers, and was one more than NHL luminaries Macklin Celebrini and Nico Hischier. Not a bad run of play for a kid drafted 199th overall in 2024. The scoring outburst is a bit atypical of Steen’s career where he has yet to hit the 20-goal mark in any single season, and it might have led to a bit of recency bias for his overall ranking. Or, on the other hand, he is a player that is aging into his game and figuring things out as a 21- and 22-year-old as opposed to someone who does it in junior hockey. After all, he did put up 12 goals in 52 games for Orebro last year. The upcoming season will be an important one for him. If Steen can put up similar production while playing a heavy game in the defensive zone, he’ll be in line for a depth role in the organization. Your Thoughts: Highest ranking was fifth. The spot that he received the most votes for was 15th (16.3%), but he had enough higher spots to bring him up a few notches. “Steen could be the sleeper if can improve his skating dynamics as he already has a nose for scoring against NHL competition.” “Steen had a good tournament last year. Will see what he can do in AHL.” Highlight Videos: Noah Steen received an unsportsmanlike penalty after something he said to Filip Hronek after the final whistle. #MensWorlds pic.twitter.com/efphd3ISP8 — Steven Ellis (@SEllisHockey) May 25, 2026 See. He’s already getting under the skin of NHL players. 🚨 This guy has been unbelievable! Noah Steen (#12 in red) forces the turnover, fights off the backchecker, and rips it home shorthanded for his 2nd goal of the game and his 5th goal of the World Championship! What a tournament he is having. ⚡️ #GoBolts pic.twitter.com/cp4J3OvI9W — Future Bolts (@FutureBolts_) May 24, 2026 This is a really nice play. He made a nice play to get the puck and he pressured a player that was at the end of his shift. The spin move to the inside caught Sweden completely off guard and Steen had the skill to beat the goaltender. It will be interesting to see if Joel Bouchard matches him up with Sam O’Reilly on the penalty kill in Syracuse this season. The first one for Noah Steen! 🚨 pic.twitter.com/I7sBPbtqB2 — Syracuse Crunch (@SyracuseCrunch) April 12, 2026 This likely won’t be the last tip goal for Steen in his professional career. He has the ability and size to play in front of the net.

What if the college hockey program recruiting your child isnt actually the best college for them?For many hockey families, playing at the college level can feel like the ultimate finish line after years of practices, travel, tournaments, showcases, sacrifices, and expenses. But when that opportunity finally arrives, another question becomes even more important:Is this really the right place for my student-athlete?In this episode of Our Kids Play Hockey, Lee Elias, Christie Casciano-Burns, and Mike Bonelli are joined by Kiersten Sires, Founder and CEO of 2aDays, to unpack what families should really be thinking about during the college recruiting process.And one of the biggest lessons? Dont let D1 or bust thinkingor your egomake the decision for you.Kiersten explains why choosing a college should go far beyond the logo on the jersey. Families need to consider academics, potential majors, location, finances, coaching style, team culture, expected role, institutional stability, and one powerful question:If hockey disappeared tomorrow, would your child still want to attend that school? In this episode, youll learn: Why Division I isnt automatically the best college hockey opportunity Why academics and career preparation need to remain central to the decision How families can research programs before the recruiting process heats up What coaches notice about playersand their parentsaway from the puck Why body language, character, communication, and self-advocacy can separate recruits How social media, streaming, and a players digital footprint have changed recruiting Why families shouldnt automatically dismiss Division III or ACHA opportunities How to evaluate coaching culture, roster turnover, facilities, campus life, and even the financial health of a school Why personal communication with coaches matters more than copy-and-paste recruiting messages How 2aDays helps student-athletes and families research coaches, programs, schools, and the overall college experienceKiersten also shares why parents need to understand something coaches already know: people talk. The way a player treats teammates, responds to adversity, communicates with adults, and carries themselves matters. And yesthe way parents behave in the stands can matter too.This conversation isnt only for families actively being recruited. The habits that create recruitable student-athletescommunication, accountability, academics, independence, character, and self-advocacystart years before the first college coach ever calls.Whether your player dreams of NCAA Division I, Division III, ACHA hockey, or simply wants to understand what opportunities might exist, this episode will help your family approach college recruiting with clearer priorities and better questions. Listen now, share this episode with another hockey family navigating the college conversation, and remember: the goal isnt simply to find a college that wants your player. Its to find a college where they can grow as a student, athlete, and person. Want a written version you can reference anytime?

Building a foundation beyond the ice.This week on Rinkside Rundown, Im joined by Brown University captain India McDadi. Instead of just tracing her collegiate steps in the ECAC, we explore how her athletic roots outside the rink ultimately shaped her competitive edge and leadership style.India opens up about growing up as a multi-sport athlete in Mississauga. We discuss how her early success in baseball taught her unique lessons in confidence, as well as the pivotal moment she decided to focus entirely on hockey. We also talk about her evolution as a leader at Brown, the realities of building a strong team culture, and how she translates those collegiate lessons into her own game.Because we recorded this conversation just before the 2026 PWHL Draft, India shares an honest look at her preparation for the professional ranks. She provides a rare, unfiltered window into the nerves and mindset required when a top collegiate player is waiting to take that next big step.If youre enjoying these conversations, subscribe and share Rinkside Rundown with your fellow womens hockey fans. New episodes drop every Thursday at 3:00 p.m. ET, featuring players from across the womens game, from youth and college to the pros. Link in bio.
A right-shot defenseman that has size and is mobile? In the Tampa Bay Lightning system, it might not be long until Tomas Kralovic is making his NHL debut. Name Tomas Kralovic Position Defenseman (Right Shot) Age (as of October 1, 2026) 21 Height/Weight 6’3″, 203 lbs. Expected 2026-27 Team Syracuse Crunch Draft – Year, Round 2026, 3rd (90th) Previous Rankings Not Applicable JustinG. Ranking 9 Final Rank 13 Stats: Our Thoughts: Tomas Kralovic’s summer has been a bit of whirlwind. First getting drafted in the third round by the Lightning (a little bit of a reach for some prognosticators), then, a few days later at Tampa Bay’s development camp, the lanky defender signed his entry-level contract. It was a little shocking that the then 20-year-old inked his deal so quickly as it wouldn’t have been a shock to see him spend at least another season in Slovakia. Instead, he’s coming overseas and will likely start his North American career in Syracuse this fall. In an organization where the defensive depth is about as deep as a puddle in a parking lot after a 15-minute Tampa rainstorm, it might not be long before he’s skating in the NHL. That being said, it’s a long way from the Extraliga to the NHL, and there are definitely some things that Kralovic will have to work on in order to see time with the Lightning. The most intriguing part of his game is his ability to generate offense. As a 20-year-old he put up 31 points (6 goals, 25 assists) in 52 games. That was good for 7th overall in the Extraliga last season, and only Ryan O’Conner put up more points as a defenseman. Only four of his points came on the power play, but it wouldn’t be a shock to see him emerge as one of the Crunch’s more reliable quarterbacks. His biggest strength is his skating ability. Yes, for once we don’t have to add the “improve his skating” cravat to his skill set. Kralovic can move the puck from one zone to another effortlessly and doesn’t mind joining the rush as an extra attacker. Once he’s in the zone he has an effective wrist shot that he can put on net with regularity. With his size he can take opponents out of the play without being overly physical. He can throw a hit and make it count, but he doesn’t go out of his way to bury other players into the ice. The Lightning tend to favor hockey sense over dynamic skill in selecting their prospects, but in this case, the scales may be tipped in the other direction. One of the biggest hurdles he’s going to have to deal with is handling the increased pressure on forechecks from higher-skilled AHL attackers. Can he process the game fast enough to make the right decisions when he’s under pressure. If he can, he has the skill to lead the rush out of the zone and turn defense into offense. Your Thoughts: “Kralovic has the physical traits to get him to NHL quickly especially with Lightning’s lack of organizational depth at D – will be a replacement for Cernak in 2027.” The new defenseman peaked at the five spot on one voter’s rankings while his most popular spot was 11th. Highlight Videos: Tomáš Královič s 3. gólom v tomto finále, viac ich zatiaľ dali len Takáč a Lacka 🏒🚨 Parádna strela od modrej a ako vyzdvihol aj spolukomentátor, nemal oči na puku, ale celý čas hral s hlavou hore pozerajúc na bránu 🥅 🎥JOJšport pic.twitter.com/Gg7ZEDfL9v — Peter Vretenička (@vretenicka) April 26, 2026 What we like about this play is that Kralovic never stops moving his feet in order to get to the slot. A lot of defenders will take a couple of strides and then glide into the area before taking their shot. That gives defenders a chance to slide out and block shots. Kralovic got to where he needed to be and snapped off his shot. 20-ročný Tomáš Královič neprestáva udivovať 😲 V piatkovom derby proti KE dostal šancu v nájazdoch a premenil obidva pokusy, čím zabezpečil pre Slovan výhru 💪 Je jediným obrancom s úspešným nájazdom v tejto sezóne 👀 🎥YT Tipsport liga pic.twitter.com/AN7My9GWx3 — Peter Vretenička (@vretenicka) October 18, 2025 The kid has some hands. The Lightning can always use another skill guy on the shoot-out. He took a nice angle and sold the toe-drag before flipping it over the glove.

Benjamin Rautiainen just posted the best offensive season a Finnish forward has produced in the Liiga in nearly two decades, and the Tampa Bay Lightning still have to decide in…
We keep getting closer, and closer, and closer to the start of hockey season. As things crawl nearer, little drops of information keep getting released. First it was the opening night game. Then it was the entire schedule. Now, the Tampa Bay Lightning have released their promotional schedule. All of the theme and giveaway nights are now up on the schedule, so go book your seats accordingly! Starting off we have their theme nights, mostly centered around holidays. Like a few other teams, the Bolts had advertised a “Fourth Wing Night” which included some special ticket packages, but that does not appear on their official list. October 3 – Opening night (Washington Capitals) October 29 – Halloween (Winnipeg Jets) November 25 – Thanksgiving (Carolina Hurricanes) December 17 and 22nd – Holiday Games (Calgary Flames, St. Louis Blues) December 31 – New Years Eve (Montreal Canadiens) January 2 – Bolts and Boots (Buffalo Sabres) January 16 – Kids Day (Ottawa Senators) January 30 – Gasparilla (New York Islanders) March 11 – Margaritaville (New Jersey Devils) April 10 – Fan Appreciation (Boston Bruins) There are also the usual Hockey is for Everyone nights that will feature merchandise designed by local artists. October 15 – Noche Latina (Seattle Kraken) November 5 – Military Appreciation (Chicago Blackhawks) November 22 – Hockey Fights Cancer (Buffalo Sabres) January 14 – Pride (Vegas Golden Knights) January 26 – Hockey Talks (Los Angeles Kings) February 28 – Black Heritage (Utah Mammoth) March 25 – First Responders (Philadelphia Flyers) March 30 – Women in Sports (Toronto Maple Leafs) Finally, the nights everyone is locking forward to – the Stadium Giveaway nights. Unlike some other organizations, the Lightning haven’t released any images of either the bobbleheads or the “pocket art”. So your guess is as good as ours as to what they are. October 3 – Schedule Magnets (Washington Capitals) October 29 – Victor Hedman Pocket Art (Winnipeg Jets) November 19 – Player Keychains (Edmonton Oilers) November 25 – Bug Keeper Hats (Carolina Hurricanes) December 7 – Nikita Kucherov Pocket Art (Columbus Blue Jackets) February 18 – Jake Guentzel Bobblehead (Anaheim Ducks) March 23 – Brandon Hagel Bobblehead (Florida Panthers) March 27 – T-Shirt April 1 – Andrei Vasilevskiy Pocket Art (Columbus Blue Jackets) It is worth noting that the Pocket Art and Bobbleheads are noted as being available for the first 10,000 fans. So make sure you arrive early on those nights! We know that the Lightning will be releasing information on their Hometown Remix jerseys at some point. There is a good chance that we will see them wear them on select Saturday night home games (assuming they wear them more than once).
