a committee of 10 members will vote on the top 2 nominees, with the 11th vote being a fan vote
“The fan vote opens 1/23 at 9 a.m. on the new Lightning app, available on all app stores. One fan who votes via the app will win two lower-level tickets to TBL vs. MTL on 3/18. Inductions will occur on Alumni Weekend 3/16-19. Full schedule to be announced at a later date”
Lecavalier and St. Louis are automatically inducted because their numbers are retired

First two have to be Espo and Peckham no?
TBLvl4
Are they going to have a physical hall of fame or will it just be a list and that’s it?

Ruuuuuuslaaaaaaaaan Fedotenkooooooooooooo

So I guess jersey retirees aren’t eligible?
In-Jail-Out-Soon
Terry Crisp, now that’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time!
Allen_Koholic
Who is Henry Paul? I thought I knew just about everything about the team, but that name is a blank to me.
humanist-misanthrope
If Espo isn’t a first ballot then the process is a joke. /s
Also, I can’t believe they dissed Vinny like this!! Prospal is a Lightning legend in my book.
Seriously though, this is cool to see happening.
Edit: Prospal quip added

Espo and Peckham or Dave
JBurlison92
Espo, Peckham, Andreychuk
LukeSkywalker1848
Phil and Dave

First two should probably be the two that have statues outside of amalie. Third, maybe Brian Bradley.
ACMop
Phil, Peckham and Dave, hard to choose anyone else over those three right now
shayna16
No love for Khabibulin?

Espo and Dave. Seems like a no brainer to me on this one..
romesthe59
I want them all in. I have a game worn Zamuner so that would be extra cool
Soup_Sensitive
I met Brian Bradley
bankrobba
Considering I used to tear my hair out watching Kubina handle the puck

Can’t believe they did Matt Carle dirty like this. Shame!
KnightRider1987
FEDOTENKO
ah my heart. I had SUCH a crush on him in high school
False_Rhythms
No Khabibulin? Or Boyle?
*edit Dan, not Brian.
FatStupidOldMan
Wasn’t Vincent Lacavalier part of the Lightning? Was he not good enough?
Gregx007
All good names although idk how I feel about Feaster on the list
Hockeygoalie41
Criminal that Khabibulin isn’t included. One of the single biggest pieces in the 50 loss team to Stanley Cup champ team was getting a Top 10 goalie.

Where is Yakuza? /s

For me it’s gotta be Espo and Dave. There’s no Lightning if not for Phil, there’s no 1st cup without Dave. Those 2 really have been iconic faces of the organization for so long, and they both have the on ice accolades too. That’s not taking anything else from the others on the list, but this would be like if the Red Soxs put in LITERALLY ANYONE before Ted Williams.
OldUncleTBag
My picks are Espo and Brian Bradley.

Where the fuck is Khabibulin!?
If they’re putting Kubina, Fedotenko and Modin on this list and not him, they’re needs to be an explanation.
