The Tampa Bay Lightning might be regretting letting Carter Verhaeghe go as he excels in the NHL playoffs with the Florida Panthers, becoming one of the league's top players. His departure due to salary-cap issues back in 20120 didn't seem significant, but now his clutch performances are hard to ignore.
He has become Florida's all-time leader in postseason goals and an essential player with a reasonable salary. The Lightning could have handled their salary cap better to keep him, with decisions that could have altered their future core.
