Report: Lightning, Guentzel agree to terms on contract
The Tampa Bay Lightning and pending unrestricted free agent Jake Guentzel have agreed to terms on a contract, sources told Daily Faceoff's Frank Seravalli.
Details of the pact have yet to be finalized, but all signs point to a seven-year deal, reports The Athletic's Pierre LeBrun.
The Bolts traded a 2025 third-round pick to the Hurricanes to acquire his rights earlier on Sunday. Guentzel and Carolina were reportedly negotiating an eight-year, $64-million pact before the trade.
News broke that Tampa Bay was setting its sights on the prized winger after creating cap space by trading Mikhail Sergachev and Tanner Jeannot on Saturday.
Carolina acquired Guentzel from the Pittsburgh Penguins in a pre-deadline blockbuster. He notched 25 points in 17 games with the Hurricanes, and he added nine more in the playoffs as the club bowed out in the second round at the hands of the New York Rangers.
Guentzel is a two-time 40-goal-scorer, and he won the Stanley Cup with Pittsburgh in 2017. His arrival in Tampa Bay adds another weapon to an already potent attack that features Nikita Kucherov, Brayden Point, and Brandon Hagel.
The 29-year-old could be a replacement for captain Steven Stamkos, who's testing the market Monday after 16 years with the Lightning.
