This is a nice move by the Note. He’s got a two-year deal and he WILL push Chris Mason for work.
He has played on winning teams and done quite well. Conklin outplayed Chris Osgood last season in Detroit, but Ozzie…
The financially strapped Lightning, in the midst of an ownership struggle, spent lavishly to hire free agent defenseman Mattias Ohlund to mentor to second overall draft pick Victor Hedman.

The big winger didn’t get drafted last year, after an injury-marred season, but he did get a long look from the San Jose Sharks. He impressed at a developmental camp, then did enough during the rookie camp to progress to…
