You do know that Ryan Mantha hasn't played in over 4 years right? He's pretty much done due to a career ending eye injury.

Quoting: TampaBayLightning22

You do know that Ryan Mantha hasn't played in over 4 years right? He's pretty much done due to a career ending eye injury.

Dalton Prout has also only played...22 NHL games the past four years, and none the past two seasons. He's essentially retired.

It is why they signed Sweezy last week - depth RD. If they sign another, it'd probably be someone still playing and with NHL experience.

Outside of Klingberg and Manson (who could be a good get on the right contract) there's not really a ton of great options. Can't see Subban going there.
