Lightning prospect Jonne Tammela traded to Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds in OHL trade

The Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds of the OHL have traded for Tampa Bay Lightning prospect Jonne Tammela. The Greyhounds acquired him from the Peterborough Petes for a conditional 15th round pick in the 2018 OHL Priority draft.

Tammela, a 2015 4th round draft pick by the Lightning, suffered a knee injury prior to the 2016-17 season. He missed the first half of the season before returning to play in just two games recording a goal. He re-aggravated the injured knee and has been out of the line-up since. He has spent this season with the Syracuse Crunch rehabilitating from his injury, but has not appeared in a game.
