Lightning's Ethan Czata: Racks up three points in loss
Czata scored twice on three shots and added an assist in OHL Niagara's 7-4 loss to Brantford on Thursday.
Playing against his hometown team, Czata had an impressive showing despite the loss. The 18-year-old center has eight goals and three assists over six games this season, which is an improved scoring touch, though he's done it on just 16 shots. Czata is a second-round pick (2025) of the Lightning and signed his entry-level deal in July after a 55-point effort over 68 regular-season games in 2024-25. Despite his recent scoring success, he's viewed as more of a checking-line option if he makes the NHL.

Lightning's Ethan Czata: Signs entry-level contract
Czata signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Lightning on Wednesday.
Czata was selected by the Lightning in the second round of the 2025 NHL Draft, and he was able to come to terms with the organization just under a month later. He made 68 regular-season appearances with OHL Niagara last year and racked up 21 goals and 34 assists. The 18-year-old will likely require more time to develop before he's in the mix to make his NHL debut.
