Johansson (lower body) will be back in the lineup Tuesday against the Coyotes at home, per Jessi Pierce of NHL.com.
EDGE Analysis
Johansson has been a nice piece for Minnesota this year, recording nine goals and 17 assists in 61 games played. The 33-year-old will likely play on the third line with Frederick Gaudreau and Marcus Foligno. He will look to provide key minutes on the power play for Minnesota as the club inches its way to a possible playoff spot.

Johansson (lower body) could be an option versus Arizona on Tuesday, Joe Smith of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
At this point, Johansson could probably be considered a game-time call for Tuesday's matchup. With just one goal and two assists in his last 14 contests, fantasy managers may not be scrambling to get the winger into their lineups. Still, Johansson could be in contention for a top-six role.

Johansson (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Johansson last played Saturday against St. Louis, so while his placement on IR will force him to miss Thursday's game against Arizona and Friday's matchup with the Avalanche, he'll be eligible to return as soon as Sunday against the Predators. Johansson has picked up nine goals and 27 points through 61 contests this campaign.

Johansson (lower body) will not be in action against Arizona on Thursday, Joe Smith of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Johansson was on the ice for a portion of Wednesday's practice but couldn't complete the session. Given the Wild's back-to-back set, it seems unlikely that the winger will be ready to face Colorado on Friday, though he hasn't been officially ruled out. Given all of the team's forward injuries, Minnesota has been rolling with seven defensemen recently, a trend that could continue Thursday.

Johansson scored a goal, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
Johansson snapped a 10-game goal drought with the first-period tally against one of his former teams. The 33-year-old winger is up to nine goals, 27 points, 88 shots on net and a minus-9 rating through 58 appearances. He remains in a second-line role, though his offense is on the low end of effectiveness for fantasy managers.

Johansson notched an assist, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 4-2 win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Johansson's offense has been missing in action lately -- this was just his second assist over his last 10 games. The 33-year-old has maintained a middle-six role through the dry spell, but his December surge is a distant memory now. Johansson has 26 points, 87 shots on net, 31 hits and a minus-11 rating over 57 contests. With little in the way of non-scoring production, Johansson's tough to roster when he isn't generating offense.

The 33-year-old Johansson came into Tuesday's matchup with just one goal in his last seven contests. Overall, he's up to eight goals and 24 points through 47 games in a middle-six role with the Wild this season.

Johansson scored a goal in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Johansson tallied 51 seconds into the second period, breaking the ice after a scoreless opening frame. The 33-year-old winger had a strong December, but his offense has stalled out with just two goals over six outings in January. For the season, Johansson is at six goals, 22 points, 68 shots on net and a minus-2 rating through 41 appearances.
