The Boston Bruins have reportedly signed physical winger Tanner Jeannot to a five-year contract with a $3.2 million annual cap hit.

Jeannot's five-year, $3.4 million AAV contract with Boston is the latest, best example of NHL GMs repeating the mistakes of their peers.

The Boston Bruins have not fared very well in NHL free agency during Don Sweeney’s decade-long tenure as general manager, and his latest contract is a head-scratcher. The B’s and left wing Tanner Jeannot have agreed to a five-year, $17 million contract, per Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman. The deal carries a $3.4 million cap hit.
