Anthony Duclair is on fire for the Bolts.
Anthony Duclair is on fire for the Bolts.
Before the 2024 NHL Trade Deadline passed, the Tampa Bay Lightning acquired Anthony Duclair from the San Jose Sharks. The move made sense, as the Lightning needed more scoring. So far, it has worked out beautifully, and Duclair is not showing any signs of slowing down.
Duclair, 28, had at least a point in all seven of his games with the Lightning thus far. He expanded his streak against the Anaheim Ducks last night with a goal. With it, he now has five goals and nine points since joining the Bolts.
When the Lightning acquired Duclair, he was on a heater with the Sharks, too. In his final four games with the Sharks, he had five goals and eight points. Thus, over his last 11 games, the skilled winger has 10 goals and 17 points. That is spectacular production.
With the playoffs right around the corner, it is excellent that Duclair is playing his best hockey. The Lightning are now hoping that he can continue to stay this hot during the final stretch of the season. If he does, Tampa Bay is going to be very difficult to go up against from here.
