The Tampa Bay Lightning has placed forward Erik Condra on waivers. If Condra clears - which is probable - he will be assigned to the Syracuse Crunch and assume the role as their captain.
Condra has been with the Lightning organization since the 2015-16 season. He’s played 67 of his 366 NHL games with Tampa. Last season, in a bit of a surprise move, Condra was put on waivers at the start of the season and assigned to Syracuse. Once there, he assumed an immediate leadership role, swallowing his pride and any negative feelings he had about the send down, and playing his heart out for his new team.
