The Lightning have announced they’ve re-signed defenseman Erik Cernak to a 3-year deal worth $2.95 million per season.
The Lightning currently sit above the league salary cap with RFA Anthony Cirelli still to sign. There have been rumors about trading Alex Killorn or Tyler Johnson to clear salary space. They may also be able to clear some space through long-term injury reserve if Nikita Kucherov’s injury turns out to be serious enough to warrant it.
