The Tampa Bay Lightning have recalled defensemen Andrej Sustr ahead of Wednesday night’s game against the Edmonton Oilers. Andrej Sustr was originally signed by the Lightning as an NCAA free agent out of the University of Nebraska-Omaha at the end of the 2012-13 season. He spent parts of six seasons in the Lightning organization before spending a year in the Anaheim Ducks organization and two years in the KHL playing for Kunlun Red Star. The Lightning signed Sustr to a one-year, two-way contract this past offseason to serve as a depth defenseman.
Sustr got some time early in the season while the Lightning were dealing with injuries to Zach Bogosian and Erik Cernak.
