2025 Fantasy Outlook
Lilleberg made significant progress on offense in his second NHL campaign, earning 19 points over 76 regular-season appearances with Tampa Bay. However, it's more about the physical play for the Norwegian defenseman, as he added 114 hits, 105 PIM and 61 blocked shots. Lilleberg wasn't fully trusted to take on bigger minutes, averaging just 15:17 per game, but at 24 years old, he still has time to grow into more minutes. It's unlikely he'll ever be a big scorer from the blue line, but he looks like a player who should have no trouble holding onto a spot in the lineup. He'll be an option in deep fantasy formats that reward his physicality. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a two-year, $1.6 million contract extension with the Lightning in July of 2024.
Doesn't finish game
Lilleberg (undisclosed) didn't play in the third period of Saturday's game versus the Islanders, Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
ANALYSIS
Lilleberg's status was not updated after the game, leaving him questionable for Monday versus the Panthers. If he can't play, the Lightning will likely need to make a roster move for a blueliner.
