Lifelong Lightning fan here, I remember when we drafted Stammer. It’s been incredible to see him grow up here, have a family, and be an example of a good man. I’ve had posters and bobbleheads of him since his rookie year, the best Captain a team could ever ask for, arguably the greatest athlete in Tampa Bay Sports history. I will never fully get over this, and never forgive JBB. The end of an era, our Captain is gone. Like many others I’ll be watching some Nashville games now, and I hope Stammer scores 60 goals this year. I wish the best to him and his family. ❤
@Steven Stamkos on behalf of my son who’s proudly serving, your dedication and integrity and commitment playing for the Tampa Bay Lightning winning two Stanley Cups will always be remembered and appreciated may you continue to inspire the Nashville team and their community and thank you.
Pred fans will absolutely love Stammer. He will quickly become a fan favorite. Outstanding guy on and off the ice! He will be missed, big time, in Tampa. Thanks for everything you've given the past 16 years.
Stammer was the best representative of Tampa on and off the ice, and a true champion! He will be missed
Thank you Stammer for the being the greatest Bolt of all time. The rafters await 91 being raised one day.
We will truly miss you Steven thank you for all the hard work and wonderful memories I will always be a bolt fan 4 life but I'm not going to lie I'll probably be paying attention to the Predators just a little bit more I'm so glad we had the honor to watch you become a star in Tampa
Thank you for your infectious/positive spirit. It will be missed more than your goals... in the local Tampa Bay area!
You will always be my Captain and I will always wear your Jersey! May God bless you and your family. Tampa will forever miss you!😢
Pure class, all the way through.
JBB is a great cap manager. Probably the best I have seen. Stamkos not only was the face of the franchise, he lead the way and set the tone for the rest of the locker room to take less money so management could get the 3rd and 4th lines they needed to win the Cup. Without that happening TB is nothing more than the Leafs. There are two ways to go in hockey. Get the money while you can or win the Cup with less money and then get money later. Stamkos did all that and encouraged the rest to either do the same thing, like Hedman, or take bridge contracts on the promise of a better contract afterwards. Cooper said many times, when we were behind, that he couldnt believe the calmness in the locker room going into that third period. That was all Stamkos. He kept people calm. He brought so much more than just being a great hockey player, to the team. JBB has ruined all that. Players are going to say, you cant trust JBB to follow through so get the money while you can. Also, the way he treated Stamkos.....saying signing him was a priority, trading people and say he now has the money to sign him, offering him that garbage contract all while giving Guentzle a contract, twice what Stamkos was asking, for a guy that has less points last year than Stamkos and has yet to exhibit any leadership qualities to a team. If Stamkos was to high of a price to pay for him, what about Duclair??? He was on the cheap and JBB had the money and let him slip away!! I have been raised on hockey, being from Minnesota, we live and breathe it. It takes everyone, from ownership down, to win a cup and it starts in the locker room. A cancer in the locker room will kill the whole process. Again, I reference the Leafs. JBB's, no class, handling of Stamkos, sends a message to everyone that plays here. He already paid 9mil for a player that hasnt played the first puck for TB. This is the shape of things to come. This is a business and TB is a place players wanted to come to, JBB ruined all of that!! All around hockey, writers are spreading accolades to the Predators being in the top 2 for their acquisitions of Stamkos and Marchessault. Write this down, they are going to be a force in the east and Tampa, well we will see. Everything that just happened, happened to cover up JBB's screw up with Jeanotte where he sold the farm for one player and TB has nothing left to tap in to. Stammer shows in this interview how classy he is and he may think what I am saying but wont say it himself, so I will. JBB has ruined the brand that Yzerman spent years building with the help of players like Stammer. Its one thing to conduct hockey as a business. Its another to be totally disrespectful and downright nasty to a player. He talks a lot of niceties towards Stammer but JBB is a dick plain and simple. Thats not coming from a disgruntled fan. It just comes from a guy that tells it like it is because I dont have to play politics. Players are going to come and go and thats business but class, honesty, and respect havent been displayed in this case. Stammer is a great player and an even better person. Best of luck Steven!!
I said it another comment, and I will say it here: keeping a player in one place for the whole of their career says a lot about BOTH the ownership of the organization and what that player brings to the team.
Watching the Lightning let Stamkos go speaks volumes about the state of the Tampa organization. And this is coming from a Wings fan who grew up with Stevie Y. The Illitch family did it right keeping #19 and #5 for their entire careers. And it seems they are continuing the trend now that Zetterberg retired only wearing one jersey, as well.
Very sad day for the Tampa organization. I feel for their fans, I feel for the players in that locker room, and I feel for Stamkos and his family. None of this right.
@@MH3GL players come and go in this cap era. My biggest problem is the way he was lead on by BriseBois saying he was a priority to sign, he was moving players to free up cap space to sign Stamkos, and then offering him a lame excuse of a contract that he would have been a fool to take. It showed total classlessness, and I believe hurt everything that the Lightning organization had built up that players wanted to play here. Stamkos handled this with total integrity and class. BriseBois might be a great cap manager but what he did to the brand, he better hope they do good this year because I would fire him. Everything he did, at Stamkos expense, was to cover for his blunder with Jeanotte and the trades that went in that deal. Is Tampa better? He better hope so.
Congrats, Stammer! As a Leafs fan and Ontario hockey fan.. couldn't be more proud. Will be strange seeing him in a Preds jersey but I wish him luck and have a feeling they may make a run. 8mil well worth it!
thanks for the kind words but no one cares what canadians think
@@ajs8738 crazy, considering stammer is canadian, and almost every best player on your favourite team is canadian. I dont even have to know which one it is.
@@ajs8738calm down.
@@ajs8738ummmmm Stammer is Canadian so shutty!
Huge Tampa Bay fan, been a huge fan of Steven Stamkos for 10 plus years. Hate to see him go but at the same time I am so happy for him. His fresh start with the Preds is going to be amazing along with Marchesseault. Wow, wish you all the best. Stammer!!. Gonna miss you😭😭😭😭😭
Good luck in Nashville Stammer prove JBB wrong love from Tampa
As a Florida Panthers fan I am happy that our rivals lost their best. Much respect to Steven Stamkos, the player and the leader... You got yourselves a heck of a champion Nashville!
Good luck Steven! Hopefully you’ll win a Stanley Cup to Downtown Music City!
Screw you JBB. You can hear it in his voice. He never wanted to leave Tampa. But JBB definitely did not go about this the wrong way. Us fans will always miss you in Tampa!!!!
* JBB went at it the wrong way
It was best for the team JBB made the right choice regardless of how you think he should have went about it. Stamkos never would have gotten 8mill per year in tb like he got now this is best for both sides.
@@hammatymee He asked JBB for $5 million
He's mad rn but won't be when the season gets goin.
@@hammatymee He never asked for $8m. He wanted 5m. JBB offered 3. It's ridiculous that he let it get this far in the process. Good for SS for getting the $32m deal, but he would have stayed in Tampa for far less. JBB is going to have to live with this if SS performs like he has the past 3.
Moved to the Tampa area in 97' and have been a Bolts fan ever since. I've been a Stammer fan for his entire run here. Thanks Steven for all the goals! You will be missed incredibly. I'm always a Bolts fan, but now a bit of me became a Nashville fan. They are so lucky to have you. Keep scoring Captain.
Welp going to be watching Preds games too this season. Great job JBB😐
Stamkos is an absolute sniper! That’s how he’s going to fit in
Stamkos, Forsberg, and Marchessault will combine for 110+ goals
Going to miss you Stammers! Good luck in Smashville!
Newfound respect for Stammer! Totally gets the business side of things but realized it was time to move on to a situation where he was valued more highly and looking at it as a new adventure. All the best.
What price for this kind of leadership? Such class.
Congrats on the deal, best of luck to you on your new team
He should still be a Bolt I’m so mad the Lightning couldn’t get him another contract. He belongs here. I’ll miss you Stammer Time please come back in 4 years to retire in Tampa!
Lived in Tampa for twenty-five years I can't believe the Lightning let this man go. So sad. I'm not sure what happened but all I know is that it was a privilege to watch Stamkos our captain lead our team for all those years. And to see the Bolts win back-to-back was amazing.
Nashville take care of stammer please ♥️we’ll miss him in Tampa 😢
Leafs fan: They did Stamkos dirty man. Take it out on the ice Stammer !!! Get em !!!
I think it’s a great signing, sometimes you just need a change of scenery, many have done it and got back being on a winning team
Again
As a Bolts fan I already miss this class act!
We’ve been waiting for a player like stammer in Nashville. I’ve been a fan and have been going to games since 97 . This is exciting!
Ive been a Bolts fan since 2003, and a Knights fan since 2017, I try to watch all 82 games from each organization every year, now that my favorite player from Tampa (Stamkos), and my favorite player from Vegas (Marchessault) have both signed with Nashville I have to try and watch those games as well now.
Good luck Stammer but you'll always be a Bolt!
I love Stammer and as a bolts fan this one hurt 😢
Tampa was offering him $3,000,000 AAV. Nashville offered him $8,000,000.... who the hell would turn down $5,000,000 per season? He was very polite about Tampa lowballing him.
Thanks Tampa we needed a guy like this.😂😂🎉
My childhood hero stammer grew up wearing ur number on the ice and now you’ve finally moved on and I’m a grown ass adult. Sad times
You will be missed in Tampa. I’m sorry it didn’t work out, but I’m glad you can be excited about the new opportunity. I look forward to the tribute video when you return this season, and I look forward to the day we retire #91.
Gunna miss our captain in Tampa! Sucks really sucks
50 goal season coming up. Can see it. Lightning messed up big.
I like how they let Steven talk before any journo's got to ask questions. Normally they let the Journo's jump right in. It was nice to hear the player speak first. He basically spoke to all the soft ball questions they would have asked him right off the bat and then silly Journo's ask them anyways.
As a die hard Bolts fan, Tampa dropped the ball. I’m sorry Stammer. Go bolts won’t be the same with the main face of the team.
I didn't like how the coach in Tampa benched Stamkos one time, he was coming off an injury or something I can't remember, the coach seemed to be a narcissist anyways glad Stamkos can go somewhere where they will appreciate him, he is a hall of famer over 500 goals and 2 Stanley Cups I mean damn what more do you want.
He would have looked great in a Colorado Avs jersey.
A reset may be just the ticket for stammer. He's still an elite player and playing for a team that wants you makes a difference. I wish him the best and hope they win a cup so he can have some real closure.
At the end of the day it didn’t hurt the Preds were offering $2-3 million more a year than the other interested teams. 😂
I don't understand. J BB had money to sign Guentzel for $63m..$9m per year. That cap space should have gone to retain Stammer. You can see in his interview that he's holding back crying. JBB will lose many many fans in Tampa. Thanks for this ridiculous decision. It was a no brainer to keep Stamkos. Shame shame shame, The bolts will probably not even make the playoffs next season because are this. Does JBB even realize the impact this is gonna have on the entire team. Once again, I don't understand.
Good luck hope you have a healthy end to your career 👍 💛 ✝️
Lookin like Thankos with that jaw line
BriseBois must simply be worried about Stamkos declining soon given his age. Nowadays if a guy is overpaid by like 3 million that’s a big deal for being competitive. It’ll be cool to see Stamkos in Nashville
guentzel had 37 goals with a plus-minus of +8, stamkos 40 goals and a minus 21. jake is also 5 years younger.
even with his skill level at his current age of 34, having scored 40 goals, steven is NOT going to be worth $8m in a few years when he declines. factor in his powerplay points from last season and his goal scoring has dropped significantly 5 on 5 the last 3 seasons. 19 of his 40G came from the pp this past season, where he benefits a lot from kucherov and hedman. forwards that can play a 2-way game help teams win. these are the major reasons why steven's gone.
I know its a Business but Tampa Did Stammer dirty. Congratulations on your nee deal Stammer. It definitely will be weird not seeing Stammer on the Ice for the Lighting. I look forward to seeing Stammer in Nashville and what this team can bring to the table. On paper the Predators look like they could be a very tough squad to get a W against
What a terrible way to treat a cornerstone peice to a franchise.. to be just kicked down the road like an old tin can.. is just sad..
i honestly hope we miss the playoffs this year we deserve it i hope JBB gets fired
Might be the Preds biggest FA acquisition since Paul Kariya?
It's funny how he admits that tampering occurred. The NHL rules are toothless, but I understand completely.
Nashville will be tough to beat next year that's for sure.
An interview I wish I never had to see…Stammer in an NHL jersey that isn’t the Bolts, FML. I support his decision though, he did what was best for him, his family, and gave us his all since day 1. I would have been fine with him leaving if it was due to him wanting to, or us just not being able to truly afford him, but we could have, should have, but fk, we didn’t. JBB and out organization as a whole completely disrespected Stammer, that’s what is most disappointing. No respect, just a take it or leave it attitude. I will be watching all the Preds games, they just doubled their fan base! #StammerTime #ThisSucks
You will always be a Bolt, never a Pred.
You can tell that he is not exited bye his voice and he wants to retire then being a predator😂 this guy is gonna not try at all just when he gose on the ice he’s gonna wanna be back in Tampa this is gonna be a nightmare 😭
Hill prob be happy when he’s captain 😭😭😭
Gotta wonder if Vinik's divorce had something to do with this one. I know JBB is the GM, but at the end od the day, Vinik owns the club, and this decision ultinately sits with him.
As a Wings fan, I feel for the Tampa fans. #19 will always be our Captain. No one in Detroit could have ever seen Yzerman in another jersey. I'm glad that's something i never had to witness.
Come to mtl why disrespect Martin St. Louis
Too bad edmonton didnt trade nurse for him
tampa did huge misstake
JBB completely fucked this entire situation. I honestly hope Guentzal flops so we can call for his job faster
Hope Steve S does well in Nashville- BUT- wish he would have ended up here in Toronto with the Leafs
Teams move on from players, it happens, regardless of how great they are. Hell, Gretz was traded!!!
As a Preds fan I am very excited to have Stammer in a Preds uni! Awesome!!
Stammer in cheddar sweater. 😭🤮🤮🤮🤮💀
Steven.... You always have the option after 4 years.... to sign a 1 year LOW 1.11M$ contract and finish with Tampa. This was a chance to "breakaway" and earn capital otherwise not on the table at the time. Nothing is forever in life...making all goodbyes special.
I thought he was meant to sign in Toronto?
it's funny seeing outsiders and casual tampa fans saying "KeEp StAmKoS No MaTtEr WhaT" lol. the romantic storybook ending would be great in if it entailed having stamkos stay with tampa, in a way that would allow him to continue his career at a fair labor cost, and in a way that allows TBL to ice a competitive team.
even with his skill level at his current age of 34, having scored 40 goals, steven is NOT going to be worth $8m in a few years when he declines. factor in his powerplay points from last season and his goal scoring has dropped significantly 5 on 5 the last 3 seasons. 19 of his 40G came from the pp this past season, where he benefits a lot from kucherov and hedman.
tampa is very comfortable in how they handle their business, and they don't want to repeat the situations that mid-2010's DET went thru, and PIT of today is going thru.
as a tampa fan i'm happy for steven getting one last big paycheck. i'm also glad the team dodged a bullet if that was the price that was required to keep steven under contract. ⚡
You offered him less than Duclair got lol. TB is A joke
He just said he would have taken less to stay in Tampa. he will be making 8 mill when he is 38 and they just signed someone who is not at his level for 9 mill till he's 37 and has never scored over 40
@@BarefootKobra This ^
Preds were near the bottom of PP goals in the playoffs. Whereas Bolts were the top PP team in regular season. With Marsh signing, The Preds have upgraded their pp and scoring.
Isn't it an 8 year contract? He'll be 42 when it's done.
Sorry Bolts, I know its business, but Stamkos, shame on you.
GO PREDATORS!!
i gotta say as a preds fan im stoked we got stasney and masrchessault. wtf happened.
you should do some colabs for sure
