Lightning Sign Mikheyev for Depth | Tampa Bay Lightning News

Tampa Bay Lightning strike early in free agency, locking up versatile forward Ilya Mikheyev to a four-year, $3.85M average deal—just one hour after the window opened. The 6’2”, 192-pound winger, who tallied 18 goals and 18 assists last season with Chicago, brings elite penalty kill prowess (9 career shorthanded goals) and reliable two-way play. With 98 goals and 103 assists in 427 games, Mikheyev slots into the bottom-six and penalty kill unit, adding depth and grit to Lightning’s roster as they build for the next NHL season.
