Andrej Sustr indicates he will not re-sign with Tampa Bay Lightning

Tampa Bay Lightning defender Andrej Sustr bid farewell to the team today via an Instagram post. His message states in part, “Thank you @tblightning for the opportunity I have been given over the past 5 years. But most importantly, Thank you to the people of Tampa and the Bay Area for providing me with such an amazing environment to live in and grow. #grateful” This message indicates that Sustr will not be re-signing with the team, a move that makes at least a little cap space and a contract slot (1.9M in 2017-18) just in case the organization might need it.
