Tyler Johnson signs PTO….in Boston

We know there were some of you out there that were intrigued by the thought of another Tampa Bay Lightning reunion with a former Stanley Cup winner. Unfortunately, it’s not in the cards (at least not yet) as old friend Tyler Johnson has signed a PTO with the Boston Bruins.

It’s been just over three years since Johnson was traded to the Chicago Blackhawks and a second-round pick (which Chicago traded to Philadelphia who drafted Carson Bjarnason) for Brent Seabrook’s contract and cap relief. It was an up-and-down tenure in The Windy City for the 34-year-old as he battled injuries and appeared in just 149 games over the three seasons.
