Lightning fan here (in peace)...everyone on our board is going to go ape-$hit over this - extremely happy. Purcell is an offense killer to be honest and was demoted to fourth line minutes at the end of the season. Purcell is about as soft as it gets...won't stand up for his teammates, will not backcheck. He is a perimeter player...only thing good I can say about him really is that his teammates liked him. He generally looked disinterested and Cooper was not able to get him to play defense. You are probably getting a third or fourth line winger with some skill. Our coach (Cooper) demands 2 way forwards who hustle and try to get puck back ... Purcell is awful fit for this.
Good luck with him...
