Defenseman Matt Lashoff has been re-signed by the Lightning, leaving Mike Lundin (and potentially Radek Smolenak) as the unsigned RFA's on the roster.

Lashoff was acquired at the trade deadline in March of 2009 from the Boston Bruins with forward Martins Karsums in the Mark Recchi deal.  Lashoff was thrust onto the blueline of a defense decimated by injuries.  

Lashoff's deal is reported to be for two years.  Read the official press release from the team here.

Lashoff

Despite the overcrowded blue line corps, I think this is a good signing. Lashoff has a real chance to be a big part of the Bolts future.
