The Tampa Bay Lightning have placed Gage Goncalves, Steven Santini, and Jesse Ylonen on waivers.
Goncalves, 23, is a young forward who could grab some attention on waivers. The 2020 second-round pick is coming off an excellent season with the Syracuse Crunch, posting 13 goals and 58 points in 69 games. With this, he was named to the AHL All-Star Game. He also appeared in his first two career NHL games with the Lightning, posting zero points and six penalty minutes.
Santini, 29, signed a one-year deal with the Lightning during this off-season. The right-shot defenseman played in 64 games with the Ontario Reign last season, where he had five goals, 20 points, and a plus-9 rating.
Ylonen also signed a one-year contract this summer. The 25-year-old winger played in 59 games with the Montreal Canadiens last season, posting four goals, four assists, and a plus-2 rating.
