Boston Bruins newly-inked forward Tanner Jeannot made The Athletic’s list of worst contracts heading into the 2025-26 season.
The Bruins signed Jeannot to a five-year, $17 million contract this offseason. The 28-year-old was coming off a two-year, $5.33 million contract originally signed with the Tampa Bay Lightning. The Lightning then moved Jeannot to the Los Angeles Kings, where he played last season.
In 67 games during the 2024-25 season, Tanner Jeannot scored seven goals and totaled 13 points. He added 89 penalty minutes while playing predominantly a bottom-six role.
That’s why Jeannot’s new contract with the Bruins raised some eyebrows.
