The Boston Bruins acquired winger Marcus Johansson from the New Jersey Devils on Monday in exchange for a second-round pick in 2019 and a 2020 fourth-rounder, the team announced.

It's Boston's second significant addition to its forward corps before the deadline after nabbing Charlie Coyle from the Minnesota Wild last week.

Johansson's battled injuries this season, but he's recorded 12 goals and 15 assists in 48 games. He carries a cap hit of $4.583 million until the end of the campaign but the Devils will retain 40 percent of his remaining salary.
