Victor Hedman has signed a four-year contract extension with the Tampa Bay Lightning worth $32 million, with an average annual value of $8 million. The extension will start in the 2025-26 season and run through the 2028-29 season, ensuring he will play his entire career in Tampa Bay.
Always believed the #GoBolts prioritized a 4th contract for Hedman over Stamkos. At 33, he’s still a stud, put up his best last season and in 2021-22. Departure of Sergachev & McDonagh signed only through 25-26 makes it more important. Championship teams need that elite No. 1 D.
Victor Hedman signs a 4 year, $32 million contract ($8 million AAV) with the Lightning. The contract begins in 2025-26. He still has one year left on his current contract.

The #GoBolts sit in a very different place today with cap space to spend after trading Mikhail Sergachev, but Steven Stamkos is still heading to free agency. They’re younger & Julien BriseBois hopes they’re ultimately better when it’s all said & done. https://t.co/96NUjttHZ0
