The Lightning didn’t go into the off-seasonw ith many unrestricted free agents. Sami Salo, Brian Lee and Tom Pyatt were the major ones while Keith Aulie and Anders Lindback were restricted free agents that the team did not offer contracts to, making them unrestricted.
Aulie and Lindback have found homes. And now so has Tom Pyatt:

Pyatt wants to forget 2013-14 and move forward, and while he probably would have preferred to do it in North America, there is a bonus for doing it in Switzerland: the opportunity to play with his brother Taylor. Taylor Pyatt had signed an agreement with the same club earlier this summer.
