With an extra day off between Stanley Cup games, Tampa Bay Lightning general manager Julien BriseBois took care of a little off-season business as he re-signed defenseman Sean Day to a one-year, two-way contract. Day, 24, spent his second season in the organization last year and produced the best season of his career to date. With the Syracuse Crunch he posted 8 goals and 32 assists in 69 games.
The Belgium native also received his first NHL call-up, appearing in two games when the Lightning were ravaged with players on the COVID list. He didn’t record a point but did have two shots on goal while averaging 10:43 of ice time.
