Johnson (upper body) was placed on waivers Tuesday, per Michael Russo of The Athletic.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson had been dealing with an injury, but his placement on waivers means he has recovered. The 26-year-old forward produced two goals, three assists and 109 hits in 42 regular-season appearances with Chicago in 2023-24. If he doesn't get claimed by another team, Johnson could be a call-up option for Minnesota during the 2024-25 campaign.
