Analysis:

Witkowski has skated in a total of four games for Tampa Bay this season, and he did not tally any points in those games. The 25-year-old defenseman will once again head back down to Syracuse and wait for the Lightning to need additional depth on defense. Nikita Nesterov will be taking Witkowski's spot on the roster.
