The 25-year-old is in the final year of his contract with the Lightning and is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season, leaving many wondering if he could leave Tampa Bay in favor of Toronto.
Stamkos has since unliked the post, and he told Erik Erlendsson of the Tampa Tribune later Wednesday that his original action was accidental:
