Boston Bruins News
Harris joins his third NHL team, entering the 2025-26 season with the Boston Bruins on a one-year, $825K contract. The 24-year-old defenseman averaged 11:23 time-on-ice and scored five points (1G / 4A) in 33 games with the Columbus Blue Jackets last season.

Steeves is an undrafted 25-year-old forward who played a career-high seven games with the Toronto Maple Leafs last season but has spent most of his career in the AHL. He had an outstanding 2024-25 season with the Toronto Marlies (AHL), scoring 62 points (36G / 26A) in 59 games.

The Bruins were busy on July 1st, adding Eyssimont to a list of depth forwards that includes Tanner Jeannot and Sean Kuraly. The 28-year-old Eyssimont scored 16 points (9G / 7A) in 77 games between the Tampa Bay Lightning and Seattle Kraken last season.

Kuraly spent the previous four seasons with the Columbus Blue Jackets, but will join his third NHL team in the 2025-26 season on a two-year deal worth $1.85 million AAV with the Boston Bruins. The 32-year-old Kuraly had 17 points (6G / 11A) in 82 games with the Blue Jackets last season, his lowest point total since scoring nine points (4G / 5A) in 47 games with the Boston Bruins in 2020-21.

Tanner Jeannot will join his fourth NHL team in five seasons after signing a five-year deal worth $3.4M AAV ($17.0M total) with Boston on Tuesday. The 28-year-old bruising forward had a down year in 2024-25, picking up only seven goals, 13 points and 89 PIMs in 67 games played. He is expected to play a complementary role, likely in Boston's bottom-six, for the upcoming season.

The Bruins solidified their goaltending depth by signed DiPietro to a two-year contract with a $812.5K AAV. The 26-year-old netminder has impressed at every level but has not been able to establish himself in the NHL yet. Dipeitro had a solid 2.05 GAA and .927 SV% in 40 games with the Providence Bruins (AHL) this season.

Jokiharju was acquired from the Buffalo Sabres last season and made a positive impact in his brief tenure with the Bruins, earning himself a three-year contract extension with a $3 million AAV. The 26-year-old Finnish defenseman recorded four points (0G / 4A) and averaged 21:22 time-on-ice in 18 games with the Bruins in 2024-25.
