An excerpt from TSN:

The Tampa Bay Lightning continued to pile on veteran support on Monday, signing forward Mark Recchi to a one-year, $1.25 million contract that’s worth $1.5 million with incentives.

Recchi, 40, split last season between the Atlanta Thrashers and Pittsburgh Penguins. He played in only 19 of the Penguins’ 26 games with just two goals and six assists. He has been a healthy scratch in seven of their last eight games before the team place him on waivers in December.

The Thrashers acquired Recchi off the wire, and the Kamloops, B.C. native scored 12 goals and 40 points in 53 games with Atlanta.
