Tyler Johnson, who played 13 seasons in the NHL and won back-to-back Stanley Cups with the Tampa Bay Lightning, announced his retirement on Monday.

Johnson most recently suited up for the Boston Bruins, but the forward played only nine games in his lone season with them and contributed two assists.

In 747 games with the Lightning (2012-21), Chicago Blackhawks (2021-24) and Bruins, Johnson racked up 433 points, tallying 193 goals and 240 assists.

He burst onto the scene in 2013-14, his first full year in the league, when he totaled 50 points (24 goals, 26 assists) and was named to the NHL All-Rookie team.

When the Lightning made a deep playoff run in 2014-15, Johnson led all NHL players with 13 goals and 23 points that postseason. He suffered a broken wrist during the Stanley Cup Final, which Tampa Bay lost to Chicago.

Johnson provided some key scoring depth for the Lightning in the 2020 and 2021 playoffs. He had a two-goal game against the Montreal Canadiens when the Lightning won their second straight Stanley Cup in July 2021.
