Jack Roslovic (© James Guillory-Imagn Images)The Tampa Bay Lightning should be looking to add to their roster this off-season. Their bottom six, in particular, could use a boost, and this year's free-agent market has the potential to offer multiple solid options to consider.
One player who the Lightning should seriously consider pursuing if he hits the free-agent market on July 1 is Carolina Hurricanes forward Jack Roslovic.
Roslovic, 28, has shown throughout his career that he can produce offense in a bottom-six role, and this has certainly been the case with the Hurricanes this year. In 81 regular-season games this year with Carolina, he had 22 goals and 39 points. He also currently has one goal, three points, and a plus-1 rating in five post-season games thus far for Carolina.
If the Lightning signed Roslovic, he could slot nicely at their third-line center spot. However, his versatility also allows him to play on the wing, so he could fit in multiple spots. In addition, he would be a clear choice for their second power-play unit because of his scoring ability.
Ultimately, the Lightning should be aiming to address their secondary scoring this summer, and bringing in a player like Roslovic could help things on that front. It will be intriguing to see if he will hit the market and the Lightning end up pursuing him from here.
