Quick Strikes for Monday, October 3

The Bolts:

· When James Wisniewski was given a tryout by the Tampa Bay Lightning, it looked as if the team’s hole at the right-handed defenseman position may have been closing up. Well, things didn’t work out during training camp; Wisniewski was part of many roster cuts and reassignments that came yesterday. [Tampa Bay Times]

The NHL:

· Though it didn’t work out with the Bolts, another team around the League would be smart to give Wisniewski, a veteran of the NHL, a look. [Pro Hockey Talk]

· Toronto Maple Leafs first round draft pick Auston Matthews is among several rookies looking to make an impact around the NHL this season.
