The Ottawa Senators have secured goaltender Jonas Johansson from the Tampa Bay Lightning, acquiring him in exchange for future considerations, the NHL club announced on Friday. Johansson, 31, put in an 11-10-2 record with a 3.29 goals-against average and a .884 save percentage in 25 games during the 2025-26 season. Since making his NHL debut with the Buffalo Sabres in the 2019-20 season, the Swedish native has played 105 NHL games, with stints in Colorado Avalanche and Florida Panthers before joining the Lightning at the beginning of the 2023-24 campaign.

Standing at six foot five and weighing 217 pounds, Johansson played 26, 19, and 25 games in the three seasons he spent with Tampa Bay, marking his first appearance of 10 games in a single season.
