The moves leave the Lightning with 26 players remaining in camp as the team prepares to travel to Quebec for a pair of preseason games this week. Of those 26 players, Tampa Bay has 15 forwards, nine defensemen and two goaltenders. There are seven players that must pass through waivers before being assigned. All players, with the exception of Daniel Milan, have been assigned to training camp with the Norfolk Admirals of the American Hockey League. Milan, after recently signing a three-year contract with the Lightning, will return to the Moncton Wildcats of the QMJHL.
