Lightning development camp: Getting to know Florida native Matt Greenfield

BRANDON — Matt Greenfield sat at his stall inside the Lightning’s practice facility locker room taking off his goalie pads and skates at a glacial pace. He wasn’t in a rush following nearly two hours of on-ice drills.

One could say he was taking it all in.

Greenfield is one of 29 prospects at this year’s five-day Lightning development camp.

And despite this being his first such camp at the NHL level, the 24-year-old goaltender wasn’t anxious or uneasy.

Florida is home for Greenfield — the heat, the familiarity of the area, the flexibility of even having a car nearby.
