Recalled/Assigned: THE DUKE HAS ARRIVED

Witkowski

Also Brandon Segal.

If we start counting from 1, the first number that hasn't been used by a Lightning player is 66. Subscribe for more interesting facts.

Long shot, but I don't think any Lightning player has worn 99 either.

Didn't see all of his shifts, but overall seemed to play well?

Never once had to say "Thats a rookie move Duke."

I'd be very surprised if he sticks around at this point. It's not as if he's forced himself into the lineup by being that good in the AHL, our depth just sucks so bad that we might as well try something.

Lmao

I mean @JoVel is right and I'd say let's temper our expectations but you know what it's like around here with the reactionary posters.

Duke looks like Glendening and Johnson put together. Anybody notice this phenomenon? Lol

I didn't see the game (gotta love working 3 hours longer) but I picked up a Johnson vibe almost immediately. If Duke is even half as productive as Johnson we'll have hit the jackpot. We need to be patient and not just trade him because something shiny popped up. We work on him and send him back down if necessary

Obviously I was joking with @JoVel but it’s nice to see the kids come up and look like they fit in and are hungry.

Some people have been trying too hard to fit in after their golden boy got traded.
