Lightning Add Mathieu Garon and J.T. Wyman
The Tampa Bay Lightning have announced that they have signed goaltender Mathieu Garon to a two-year contract worth $2.6 million and right wing J.T. Wyman to a one-year, two-way contract. Garon's deal will pay him $1.3 million per season, while the financial terms of Wyman's deal were not disclosed. In 36 games last season with the Columbus Blue Jackets, Garon posted a 10-14-6 record, three shutouts, a 2.72 GAA, and a .901 save percentage. Wyman appeared in 80 games last season with Hamilton of the AHL, scoring 18 goals and 18 assists for 36 points. Garon is a decent depth signing for the Lightning, as he is a hard worker on the ice and is an excellent backup goalie. He should be a good compliment to Dwayne Roloson next season. As for Wyman, he is just a depth signing and will likely spend all of next season in the minors.
