The Boston Bruins have officially brought forward Tyler Johnson onto their roster, finalizing a contract worth $775,000 for the current season.
At 34 years old, Johnson played 67 games for the Chicago Blackhawks last season, where he managed to score 17 goals and provide 14 assists. Standing at 5 feet 8 inches and weighing 185 pounds, he has made a significant impact over his 12-season career in the NHL, accumulating a total of 193 goals alongside 238 assists while playing for both Chicago and Tampa Bay.
Originating from Spokane, Washington, Johnson entered the NHL without being drafted and initially signed as a free agent with Tampa Bay back in 2011. This new chapter with the Bruins marks another step in his journey through professional hockey.
