Columbus Blue Jackets / Signed- Agency
- Premium
Johnson’s creative output is the byproduct of carefully honed techniques and a gifted mind. He handles the puck with his top hand free from his body, pushed forward with precision, quickness, and agility. When he’s feeling it, the game looks effortless. Johnson anticipates player movement so exceptionally well, whether they’re teammates or opponents, and lets that mental map of the ice dictate his plan of attack. -EliteProspects 2021 NHL Draft Guide
