Lightning Secure Mikheyev at $3.85M AAV on Four-Year Deal
Tampa Bay is making its opening move of free agency official, locking up Ilya Mikheyev on a four-year contract with an average annual value of $3.85 million. The Lightning are clearly comfortable with this investment as they look to strengthen their forward depth without overextending their cap situation. Mikheyev's deal represents the kind of calculated risk that contending teams take when they believe a player can contribute at a reasonable price.
