Bridgeport Releases Blight

BRIDGEPORT, Conn. - The Bridgeport Sound Tigers of the American Hockey League announced that they have released former Clarkson forward Chris Blight from his professional tryout contract (PTO).

Blight returns to the Reading Royals of the ECHL after being called up on Dec. 31 prior to the Sound Tigers game against Worcester. Blight did not appear in either of the Sound Tigers two games during his second recall. The Cambridge, ONT native notched four points (one goal, three assists) in 13 games with the Sound Tigers earlier this year.
