Tampa Bay Lightning Call Up Forward


The Tampa Bay Lightning have called up Alex Barre-Boulet to their NHL roster. This is in response to Pierre-Edouard Bellemare being away from the team for personal reasons.

Barre-Boulet has once again been dominating with the Syracuse Crunch this season, as he has four goals and 24 points in just 16 games. Now, the 25-year-old forward will be aiming to translate some of that offensive success over to the NHL during this call-up.

There's no question that Barre-Boulet has the potential to become a solid scorer at the NHL level, but it just has not come to fruition at this point in his career. In 31 career NHL games split between the Seattle Kraken and Lightning, he has six goals and three assists. Let's see how these career stats change during this latest call-up from here.
