Yesterday afternoon, the Tampa Bay Lightning announced that they recalled goaltender Connor Ingram from the Syracuse Crunch. They also sent Eddie Pasquale, who had been Louis Domingue’s backup over the last couple weeks, back to the Crunch.
The goal of the move is likely to get Pasquale some playing time. He’s been on the bench since being called up to the NHL and is expected to get little if any time while Domingue fills in for Vasilevskiy. The swap allows Pasquale to get a game or two in Syracuse and Ingram to get a couple games off.
