According to NHL insider Chris Johnston, Johnson wants to keep playing and will talk with NHL clubs after the holiday roster freeze is over.

Teams looking for more forward depth and experience could consider taking a chance on Johnson. While things did not work out for him with the Bruins, he had 17 goals and 31 points in 67 games just last season with the Chicago Blackhawks.
