August 2024 – Currently out of contract and a UFA. Day has been stuck in the AHL with the Syracuse Crunch, only playing two games with the Lightning over three years. A defense-minded defenseman, he will provide way more value to whatever team signs him than any fantasy team. He is in an awkward position, stuck being very good for the AHL but not quite good enough to be a consistent NHL player. If Day signs with any NHL team, it will very likely be a two-way deal, leaving him stuck on the fringes of the NHL, seeing more time with the AHL squad. Markus Roach
June 2022- Just recently signed to a one-year contract extension, Day is a smooth and quick skater. He’s an average passer, who struggles at times to generate defensive zone exits from his passing, but possesses borderline elite puck carrying. He needs to rely on his puck carrying skills to become more effective on breakouts and to maintain possession in the offensive zone. There might be more offence to unlock if he develops that more.
