Johnson scored a power-play goal on two shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson kicked off a third-period rally with his 17th goal of the campaign. The 33-year-old forward ended the campaign with 31 points, 112 shots on net, 26 PIM and a minus-35 rating over 67 appearances. Johnson is set for unrestricted free agency this summer, and he should have a decent number of suitors now that he won't command a $5 million cap hit.

Johnson scored a goal on three shots, dished an assist, went plus-2 and blocked two shots in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis

The 33-year-old forward is up to 28 points, 98 shots on net and a minus-29 rating through 56 appearances. He's on track to reach the 60-game mark for the first time since 2019-20.

Johnson scored a power-play goal on three shots and went minus-2 in Tuesday's 7-2 win over the Ducks.
EDGE Analysis
After a line brawl in the third period, the Blackhawks ended up on a power play and Johnson converted. It was his third goal in as many games, and he has six points over his last four outings. The veteran forward is up to 15 tallies, 24 points, 87 shots on net and a minus-26 rating through 51 appearances. Johnson's in a middle-six role at even strength, but his presence on the top power-play unit gives him a boost for fantasy purposes.

Johnson scored a power-play goal on his lone shot in Sunday's 7-4 win over the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson put Chicago ahead 4-3 late in the second period, one-timing a feed from Connor Bedard on the power play. The 33-year-old Johnson now has goals in back-to-back games and five points (two goals, three assists) in his last three contests, four coming on the man advantage. He's up to 14 goals and 23 points through 50 games this season. While Johnson won't likely sustain his current scoring pace, he could have some deep-league value while working on the Blackhawks' top power-play unit.

Johnson supplied three power-play assists in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Coyotes.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson ended a four-game point drought with his big performance Tuesday. He assisted on goals by Seth Jones, Nick Foligno and Philipp Kurashev as the Blackhawks showed rare efficiency with the man advantage. For the season, Johnson is up to 21 points (11 on the power play) with 81 shots on net and a minus-22 rating through 48 contests.

Johnson scored a goal on five shots in Friday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson was able to force overtime by scoring the tying goal with 43 seconds left in the third period. The 33-year-old has racked up three goals and two assists over his last six outings despite a move to the third line since Connor Bedard returned from a jaw injury. On the season, Johnson has 12 goals, 18 points, 78 shots on net and a minus-19 rating through 43 outings while seeing regular middle-six usage and power-play time.

Johnson scored a goal on three shots, added an assist, logged two PIM and went minus-2 in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Hurricanes.
EDGE Analysis
Both of Johnson's points came on the power play. He has four points over six outings since he returned from a foot injury. The 33-year-old forward's middle-six role at even strength isn't encouraging, but he's on the top power-play unit, which should salvage some value. He's produced 17 points (eight on the power play) with 68 shots on net and a minus-19 rating over 41 appearances this season.

Johnson scored a power-play goal on three shots in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
The goal was Johnson's first point in three games since he returned from a foot injury. The 33-year-old has immediately retaken a top-line role since the Blackhawks are missing a number of other forwards to injuries. Johnson is at 10 goals, four assists, 64 shots on net and a minus-17 rating through 38 appearances this season. He's a likely trade candidate, though the Blackhawks will likely need to retain at least some of his $5 million cap hit to make a deal with a contender work.
