Erik Erlendsson wasn't very optimistic about Mattias Ohlund's knee being strong enough for him to return to the Tampa Bay Lightning next season. Erlendsson responded to a question about his return by saying, "Wouldn't count on it and I don't think the Lightning are either." Ohlund missed all of the 2011-12 season with that knee problem. The Swedish blueliner has a whopping four years remaining on an albatross of a deal, so this might be a pattern during the next few off-seasons.
