The Penguins have signed Brian Boyle to a one-year contract.

Boyle was in Penguins' camp on a PTO and earned a roster spot for at least the early part of the season. With both Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin out, the Penguins are in serious need of centres and Boyle figures to open the season as their fourth-line centre.

The Panthers signed Brian Boyle to a one-year, one-way contract.

Boyle has bounced around the NHL in recent years, playing for the Lightning, Maple Leafs, Devils and Rangers in the last three seasons. Boyle split last year between New Jersey and Nashville and finished the season with 18 goals and six assists (24 points) in 73 games. With Henrik Borgstrom going back to the AHL, Boyle figures to play a bottom-6 role with his new squad.

The Predators have acquired Brian Boyle from the Devils for a 2019 second-round pick.

After Austin Watson was suspended indefinitely, the Predators were in search of some bottom-6 help and they found it in Boyle. Boyle doesn’t have a lot of flair to his game but he’s a reliable two-way centre who can be a net-front asset on the power-play. Boyle has already set a career-high in power-play goals (6) and points (8), giving him a total of 13 goals and 19 points in 47 games this season.
