BoltProspects: @roghamil I thought we did a couple seasons ago.

The Lightning on Monday hired Rick Bowness as an associate coach and to lead the defense and penalty kill. "We were looking for experience," coach Jon Cooper said. "It was a no-brainer for us."

BoltProspects: @FPyth Double up. (?)

BoltProspects: I still wouldn't mind seeing Ulf Samuelsson come over and work with the Lightning's defense. I believe they still have an opening.

BoltProspects: @roghamil Yup. I really wanted Skinner that year.

BoltProspects: CORRECTION: D focused draft in 2010 was run by Jim Hammet, who was a Len Barrie staffer. Yzerman at the table. Connolly taken that year.

BoltProspects: ICYMI: Yzerman was hired after GMing CAN to gold at Worlds & Olym, had turned down Wild GM offer, was named finalist for best GM in 1st yr.

BoltProspects: That D focus wasn't great: Beukeboom (used in Brewer deal), Gudas, Janosik, Schemitsch. Only Gudas got a contract. Blues passed on Beuk.

BoltProspects: Any choices made in Yzerman's first draft (2010) are sole responsibility of Yzerman and his staff. Gudas was part of a D focus in mid rds.

BoltProspects: Since this has come up: 4 pre-Yzerman players are Mark Barberio, Richard Panik, Alex Hutchings, Riku Helenius (unique '12 RFA signing).

BoltProspects: @SteveOtt3 @RawCharge Watch out for Barkov (nudge-nudge-wink-wink)
