The Tampa Bay Lightning have signed forward Tyler Johnson to a seven-year extension worth $35 million, the team announced Monday.
Johnson appeared in 66 games with the Lightning last season, tallying 19 goals and 26 assists. He was a restricted free agent who was scheduled for arbitration later this offseason.
During the 2014-15 postseason, Johnson led the Lightning with 23 points as Tampa Bay advanced to the Stanley Cup Final.
Johnson joined the Lightning in 2011 as an undrafted free agent. He has since appeared in 308 games and has recorded 89 goals and 122 assists.
