After falling 2-1 to the Carolina Hurricanes to open their preseason schedule, the Tampa Bay Lightning will face the current Stanley Cup Champion, Florida Panthers, in Orlando tonight. After icing a roster against the Canes that was heavy with players competing for spots on the roster, the Bolts will do the same again tonight as they feature a line-up of players that are most likely destined to play in Syracuse this season.
At the morning skate the lines were:
Forwards
Dylan Duke – Conor Geekie – Max Groshev
(open) – Jujhar Khaira – Jesse Ylonen
Jayden Dureau – Niko Huuhtanen – Gabriel Szturc
Joel Teasdale – Milo Roelens – Kale Kessy
Defense
Scott Wolford – Nick Perbix
Derrick Poulit – Tyson Feist
Tobie Paquette-Bisson – Steven Santini
Goaltenders
Ryan Fanti
Jonas Johansson
Luke Glendening was skating in the “open” spot on the second line, but he’s still in a non-contact jersey.
