Lightning Will Likely Trim Payroll

Oct 29, 2014 6:10 AM

Lightning president Ron Campbell said Tuesday a tentative budget approved by owner Bill Davidson and CEO Tom Wilson shows $40-million allocated for player salaries. That is $4-million less than this season's cap. It also is $2-million less than this season's payroll of about $42-million, though that gap could increase if Tampa Bay makes a significant trade to augment its playoff push.
