The Tampa Bay Lightning have signed goaltender Jonas Johansson to a two-year, $2.5MM contract extension, preventing him from becoming an unrestricted free agent. This season, Johansson served as the full-time backup, achieving a 9-6-3 record and .895 save percentage in 19 games, an improvement over last year’s stats. Previously, Johansson struggled for NHL minutes with teams like the Buffalo Sabres and Colorado Avalanche, but has accumulated a 21-13-8 record and .892 Sv% in 45 games with Tampa Bay.
