Lightning Sign Marc-Andre Bergeron to Two-Year Contract

The Tampa Bay Lightning announced today that they have signed defenseman Marc-Andre Bergeron to a two-year contract extension worth $2 million. The deal will pay him $1 million each season. He would have been an unrestricted free agent on July 1. In 23 games last season with the Lightning, he had two goals and six assists for eight points. He also appeared in 13 games with Norfolk of the AHL, scoring two goals and six assists for eight points. Not a bad depth signing for the Lightning, as Bergeron will bring lots of offensive skill to the blueline, especially on the power play. However, his defensive game is lacking, as he struggles against bigger NHL forwards and tends to turn over the puck a lot. Look for him to be a fifth or sixth defenseman for the team next season.
