The Boston Bruins are set to terminate Tyler Johnson's contract as he has been placed on unconditional waivers. If he clears, he will become an unrestricted free agent.

Signed for a year at $775,000, Johnson's impact was minimal with only two assists in nine games. His pre-season performance was slightly better, but he has seen limited action in December.

Johnson, a two-time Stanley Cup champion with the Tampa Bay Lightning, has played 747 NHL games, accumulating 433 points.
