Absent further roster moves during the offseason, the Tampa Bay Lightning will look very shallow up front to start the 2024-25 campaign. Conor Geekie could be the beneficiary.
It may sound crazy, but bring back Tyler Johnson from the wilderness. I bet he would sign for cheap. We could have given the Girgensens money or Atkinson's. At worst, I bet Johnson would sign for less than $2m. The longer he sits unclaimed, the cheaper he gets. Looking at his numbers last season, he's certainly better than Sheary, Atkinson, or the Zemgus.
And bring back his old goal song and it will soothe some of the fans nostalgia.
