Brian Engblom named Lightning color analyst

The Lightning finally found its replacement for "The Chief."

Former NHL defenseman and veteran broadcaster Brian Engblom will be the Lightning's new color analyst for Sun Sports, joining play-by-play man Rick Peckham.

“I am thrilled to be going to such a terrific organization on and off the ice,” Engblom said in a statement. “I’ve missed working for a team and that affiliation is something that I really haven’t had in my 20 years broadcasting at the national level. Lightning fans are fortunate to have a young, terrific team. The next step is the most fun, and I’m excited to be a part of it.
