  • Snags helper in loss
    Hagel recorded an assist, four hits and a minus-2 rating in Monday's 6-1 loss to the Panthers in Game 5.

    Advice: Hagel posted three goals, two assists, eight shots on net and 13 hits over five playoff appearances.

He earned an eight-year contract extension last summer, which will begin in 2024-25, so Hagel should be a key piece for the Lightning's offense for years to come.
