Wisniewski was released by the Lightning on Sunday, Joe Smith of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wisniewski was with the Lightning on a professional tryout agreement and despite optimism about potentially making the final roster, it appears Wisniewski will have to look elsewhere for work. The 32-year-old defenseman missed a full year after undergoing ACL surgery, so he could still be shaking off some rust and may find another team willing to give him a shot.
