Borgman was waived unconditionally by the Stars for the purpose of terminating his contract Wednesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

Borgman has yet to appear in an NHL contest this season, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him return to his native Sweden to continue his playing career now that he's no longer under contract with the Stars. The 26-year-old blueliner may have played his last NHL game.

Borgman was placed on waivers by Dallas on Friday, Sportsnet's Chris Johnston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Borgman appeared in seven games with the Lightning last season, tallying two helpers while posting a minus-2 rating over that span. The 26-year-old blueliner may bounce between levels in 2021-22, but he likely won't get into many games with the Stars.

Borgman put pen to paper on a one-year, two-way contract with Dallas on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Borgman served as a depth defenseman for the Lightning last season, appearing in just seven games for the club in which he generated two assists, seven shots and 10 while averaging a meager 11:58 of ice time. The Swede probably should be expecting to once again split his time between the NHL and AHL and, as a result, won't offer much in the way of fantasy value.

Borgman was promoted to the active roster Wednesday, per CapFriendly.

EDGE Analysis

Borgman will likely serve as defensive depth for the Lightning during the playoffs. The Swede had two assists in seven contests during the regular season.

Borgman was assigned to AHL Syracuse on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

The 25-year-old blueliner has played seven NHL games this season, dishing out two assists and 10 hits. The Lightning acquired defenseman David Savard from the Blue Jackets over the weekend, so Borgman's depth isn't necessary anymore. He'll continue his development in the minors.

Borgman was reassigned to the Lightning's taxi squad Sunday, per CapFriendly.

EDGE Analysis

Borgman will likely continue to bounce between levels throughout the rest of the campaign. He's picked up two assists in seven top-level appearances this year.

Borgman was promoted to the active roster Saturday and produced an assist and three hits in a 2-1 win over the Red Wings.

EDGE Analysis

Borgman is up to two assists and 10 hits through seven appearances this season. The 25-year-old Swede will likely stay in the lineup until the Lightning's injured blueliners can return.

Borgman was assigned to the taxi squad Friday, per CapFriendly.

EDGE Analysis

Borgman has a good chance of being recalled to the active roster for this weekend's back-to-back set versus the Red Wings.

Borgman produced an assist, four shots on net and two hits in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Blue Jackets.

EDGE Analysis

Borgman earned the secondary helper on a Mathieu Joseph goal in the third period. The 25-year-old Borgman has played in four straight games due to lower-body injuries for Ryan McDonagh and Erik Cernak. Jan Rutta (lower body) joined the injury list Tuesday, which could mean more playing for Borgman. He has one helper, seven hits and four PIM in five outings.

Borgman was promoted to the active roster to play in a third-pairing role Thursday versus the Stars, per CapFriendly.

EDGE Analysis

Borgman will draw into his second straight game as the Lightning battle injuries on the blue line. He'd likely exit the lineup once Ryan McDonagh (lower body) can return.
