Good for Tyler

About time

I thought this might happen. They did the same thing last year to manufacture some cap space.

Is he going on waivers tomorrow or are they going to have him on the NHL team?

Nice. Hope it's works out

It's a 1-way deal. (which for the avoidance of doubt for anyone reading, just means he gets paid the same salary regardless of whether he is the NHL or AHL, it doesn't guarantee anyone a spot necessarily). I suppose they could do whatever they want now that he's under contract, but I don't think he would have signed if it was just to go to the AHL. I think all signs point to NHL.

He’ll be in Boston.
Wouldn’t have hung around if he was gonna be sent to the ahl

Tyler Johnson still has game. And the Bruins are desperate for forward help. Makes a ton of sense.

Hope he does well.

Boston got some good cheap help last season with Heinen and JVR. This signing might pay off as well. They need offensive help. Can't beat the price.

Disagree from what I saw recently

We shall see how it goes but B fans should not expect much

Wishing TJ all the luck

Would've been better signing Kessel. Infinitely better than Tyler Johnson.

I mean…he can still play hockey, yes. Lol

But He’s a shell of what he was in Tampa and is made of glass.

Seems like a good guy though, hope he gets some playoff games.
