The Tampa Bay Lightning have re-signed forward Tyler Johnson a seven-year contract worth $5-million AAV, vice president and general manager Steve Yzerman announced today.
I think this is a very good deal for the bolts. For me the $5 mill mark is spot on for Johnson especially considering TSN was predicted both he and Palat could be looking at getting north of $5.5, heading towards $6 mill per. I don't think he'll ever get back to his scoring ability of 29 goals like his did in his 2nd full season but I could see him consistently 20-25 goals and 50-55 points. He's a very solid two way #2 center and to have him locked up for the next 7 years at a good price is another one in the bank for Stevie Y.
