J.J. Moser - Handed two-game ban Moser will serve a two-game suspension for boarding, the Department of Player Safety announced Monday.
Impact Moser joins Tampa Bay's Scott Sabourin, who was hit with a four-game ban for his actions in Saturday's preseason contest, on the NHL's suspended list to open the season. With Moser unavailable, Emil Lilleberg will likely step into the Bolts' fourth pairing alongside Max Crozier, while Declan Carlile could be recalled from AHL Syracuse. In 54 regular-season games last year, the 25-year-old Moser notched two goals on 48 shots, 12 assists and 34 hits while averaging 18:51 of ice time.

Zemgus Girgensons - Surfaces on IR Girgensons (undisclosed) was moved to injured reserve Monday.
Impact Girgensons will miss at least the first two games of the 2025-26 campaign after landing on the IR list. However, it is unclear when he will be available to return to the lineup. He had two goals, four assists, 83 shots on net, 50 blocked shots and 174 hits across 82 regular-season outings in 2024-25.
OCTOBER 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Niko Huuhtanen - Hits injured non-roster list Huuhtanen (undisclosed) was put on the injured non-roster list Monday.
Impact Huuhtanen will likely head to AHL Syracuse once he's ready to return to action. He had eight goals and 20 points in 51 regular-season appearances with Tampa Bay's top minor-league affiliate in 2024-25.
OCTOBER 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Nick Paul - Put on LTIR Paul (upper body) was placed on long-term injured reserve Monday.
Impact Paul won't be available to return from offseason surgery until early November. He accounted for 22 goals, 41 points, 141 shots on net and 66 hits across 76 regular-season appearances in 2024-25. Once he's healthy, he will be in the mix for a middle-six role and could see time on the second power-play unit.

NHL suspends Tampa Bay's Sabourin for 4 games, Moser for 2 games after chaotic preseason finale

The NHL has suspended Tampa Bay forward Scott Sabourin for four games and defenseman J
OCTOBER 6, 2025 • Associated Press
Scott Sabourin - Suspended, demoted to minors Sabourin was handed a four-game suspension by the Department of Player Safety on Monday before being sent down to AHL Syracuse.
Impact Sabourin could still be recalled ahead of Thursday's Opening Night matchup with Ottawa, as the Bolts are likely trying to maximize their LTIR benefit for Nick Paul (upper body). If Sabourin does start the year in the minors, he'll need to serve his suspension at the NHL level before he can get into a game.
OCTOBER 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Declan Carlile - Waived by Tampa Bay Carlile was placed on waivers by the Lightning on Sunday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
Impact Carlile has made just four regular-season NHL appearances across the past two years, and he'll be left off the Opening Night roster ahead of the 2025-26 campaign. He made 55 regular-season appearances with AHL Syracuse last year and recorded six goals, 10 assists and 52 PIM. He'll presumably head back to Syracuse if he clears waivers and will likely spend most of the season in the minors.

J.J. Moser - Hearing with Player Safety Moser has a hearing scheduled for his role in the altercation during Saturday's preseason game against the Panthers, according to the NHL Department of Player Safety.
Impact Saturday's preseason game against the Panthers ended with 312 penalty minutes and 16 players ejected, with Moser among them. The infraction being looked at for the 25-year-old was a boarding penalty on Jesper Boqvist for which the defenseman was ejected. Any suspension would hold out Moser, expected to play a top-four role with the Lightning this season, out for the start of the season.
OCTOBER 5, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Scott Sabourin - Having a hearing for roughing The NHL Department of Player Safety announced Sunday that Sabourin will have a hearing for roughing Florida's Aaron Ekblad in Saturday's preseason game.
Impact Sabourin received a match penalty at the 2:18 mark of the first period for going after Ekblad. The 33-year-old Sabourin had 10 goals, 25 points and 111 PIM across 68 regular-season appearances with AHL San Jose in 2024-25. In the likely event that he lands a suspension, he will need to be on Tampa Bay's roster to serve it. However, he would still be eligible to play for AHL Syracuse during that time.
