Latest news

• Groshev was placed on waivers by the Lightning on Sunday.

  Groshev signed a two-year, two-way deal with the Lightning in the offseason after another solid year in the organization. He made his NHL debut during the 2025-26 campaign, recording one assist across just two regular-season outings. The 24-year-old winger is headed into his fourth season with AHL Syracuse, where he will continue his development in hopes of being a depth winger for the team in the near future.

• Groshev agreed to terms on a two-year, two-way contract with Tampa Bay on Tuesday.

  Groshev made his NHL debut last season, logging two regular-season games for the Bolts in which he produced one assist, one shot and one block while averaging 11:30 of ice time. The 24-year-old was selected in the third round of the 2020 NHL Draft as a winger before making the switch to defense. While he figures to start the 2026-27 campaign in the minors, Groshev could get a look during the season, given his flexibility and offensive potential.

• Groshev has been reassigned to AHL Syracuse, according to the NHL media site.

  Groshev's reassignment comes in combination with the activation of star Victor Hedman from injured reserve. The 24-year-old Groshev got in one game at the NHL level in this most recent stint, skating for 9:57 against the Mammoth on Jan 26. He'll head to AHL Syracuse, where he has 13 points (one goal, 12 assists) in 35 games.

• Groshev has been recalled by the Lightning from AHL Syracuse, the team announced Sunday.

  Groshev has come up due to Lightning defensemen Charle-Edouard D'Astous (undisclosed) and Erik Cernak (upper boddy) being day-to-day. The 24-year-old Groshev has one goal and 12 assists in 35 games with AHL Syracuse. If he were to suit up in an NHL game, it would be his second of the season and his career.

• Groshev was demoted to AHL Syracuse on Monday.

  Groshev has been a healthy scratch for seven of his eight games on the NHL roster, posting an assist in his lone appearance for the Lightning this year. While the team could bring another defenseman up from the minors ahead of Tuesday's game versus Colorado, the decision to reassign Groshev could be an indication that Ryan McDonagh (undisclosed) is close to returning.

• Groshev notched an assist in Sunday's 5-4 shootout win over the Canadiens.

  Groshev saw 13:03 of ice time in his NHL debut and helped out on Nick Paul's second-period tally. The 24-year-old Groshev had been on the NHL roster a couple of times earlier in the season, but Sunday was his first game. He'll get a chance to compete for playing time while the Lightning are missing four of their regulars on the blue line.
