2 years agoTampa Bay Lightning forward Nick Paul has signed a seven-year, $22.05 million contract with the team on Friday. Paul could have become an unrestricted free agent on July 13, but the two sides reached an agreement ahead of free agency as the deal carries an average annual value of $3.15 million. The Lightning acquired the 27-year-old ahead of the 2021 NHL trade deadline, and he played a valuable role during the run to the Stanley Cup Finals with five goals and nine points through 23 games.--Denis Vondrus - RotoBaller
