-HE’S BACK! Brayden Point finally re-signed with the Tampa Bay Lightning yesterday, ending the long-extended drama that started early last summer when Point became a RFA. The momentous occasion broke with this tweet from Eric Francis:
Geo jumped on the news as soon as he could, pumping out our happy feelings for all to see.
All-in-all, I give the Lightning an A on this deal. It’s a good, solid contract that should work out well for both sides. Point has given himself some financial stability. The Lightning have gotten a top-20 in the NHL player for a reasonable contract for the next three seasons.
