TAMPA BAY – The Tampa Bay Lightning have signed free agent left wing Sean Bergenheim to a one-year contract today, Vice President and General Manager Steve Yzerman announced.

"We are happy to add Sean to the Lightning roster today," Yzerman said. "He is a competitive left winger who is also a solid two-way player. We believe he is a good addition to our team."

Bergenheim, 5-foot-10, 205 pounds, has registered 40 goals, 80 points and 195 penalty minutes in 246 career NHL games, all with the New York Islanders. He has reached double digits in goals and points in each of the last three seasons. In 2009-10, Bergenheim led the Islanders in game-winning goals with two and tied for eighth on the team with 133 shots on goal. His best offensive season came in 2008-09 when he recorded career-highs in goals with 15, the team's third-highest total, and points with 24. He also ranked first on the Islanders in shorthanded goals with four and game-winning goals with five.

A native of Helsinki, Finland, Bergenheim has skated in 116 career AHL games, all with the Bridgeport Sound Tigers. He amassed 40 goals and 76 points in two full seasons with the Sound Tigers. He also notched two goals and seven points in 14 career playoff games with Bridgeport. In 2005-06, his final AHL season, Bergenheim set AHL career-highs in goals, assists, points and penalty minutes and was tied for third in the league with four shorthanded goals. He also held a share of the team lead in overall goals with 25 and his 47 points marked the club's fifth-best total. Bergenheim finished the season tied for third on the team with seven power-play goals, while also leading Bridgeport with 112 penalty minutes.
