Picked fifth overall in the 2021 NHL Draft, Johnson was sent down after posting one goal and two assists in eight games for Columbus this season.

Johnson has looked better in the AHL, picking up five goals and 10 assists in 15 games.

Johnson had 16 goals and 24 assists in 79 games last season, his first full year in the NHL.
