The Tampa Bay Lightning has had more than their fair share of ups and downs this season. From numerous injuries to unrelenting drama, fans here in the Bolts Nation have just about seen it all. Unfortunately, much of the negativity that has been looming in the skies here in the Bolts Nation has surrounded one single person; estranged Tampa Bay Lightning forward Jonathan Drouin.
After missing more than a couple games due to an injury, Tampa Bay Lightning Vice President and General Manager Steve Yzerman decided to assign Jonathan Drouin to the Lightning’s American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Syracuse Crunch, for a conditioning assignment.
