Johansson stopped 34 of 42 shots in Sunday's 8-7 loss to the Sabres.

EDGE Analysis

Conceding eight goals is far from ideal, as Johansson only posted an .810 save percentage in one of the highest-scoring games of the 2025-26 NHL season so far. Johansson has appeared in six games (five starts) since the beginning of January, going 2-3-0 with a 4.35 GAA and an .855 save percentage. He's firmly entrenched as the Lightning's No. 2 option between the pipes behind Andrei Vasilevskiy, so he's not going to have a lot of upside in most fantasy formats. Even when Johansson is scheduled to start, he's a matchup-based, streaming-only option.

Johansson will guard the road goal against the Sabres on Sunday, Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johansson will get the second half of Tampa Bay's back-to-back after Andrei Vasilevskiy played in Saturday's 5-2 win over Toronto.

Johansson made 20 saves in relief Saturday in a 6-2 loss to the Sabres. He allowed one goal.

EDGE Analysis

The Bolts had no compete and little focus Saturday, so netminding was an adventure behind them. Andrei Vasilevskiy allowed five goals on 14 shots, and coach Jon Cooper yanked him to prove a point. Johansson was solid, but it won't earn him more time in net. The Bolts may give him starts when they are home and cooled later in the season. Tampa Bay is four points ahead of Buffalo and five ahead of Montreal, and they will make sure they are solid in first before Johansson gets multiple starts.

Johansson made 28 saves in a 5-4 loss to Carolina on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Johansson got off to a rough start, allowing three goals in the first 10 minutes of the game. He has lost his last two games and allowed 11 goals in that span. Starter Andrei Vasilevskiy is well rested, so don't expect Johansson to see too much time in the blue paint.

Johansson will protect the road goal versus the Hurricanes on Thursday, Ryan Henkel of The Hockey News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johansson will handle the second half of a back-to-back after Andrei Vasilevskiy earned a 4-2 win over the Maple Leafs on Wednesday. Johansson played just three times in January, allowing 10 goals on 70 shots. He's got a tough matchup ahead, especially since he hasn't played since Jan. 24.

Johansson made 23 saves in an 8-5 loss to Columbus on Saturday. he allowed six goals.

EDGE Analysis

The game was chaotic. Columbus scored four goals in the first period, and they put up two more in the second. It was Johansson's first loss in four games, but that's all he'd played since the December break. He is 10-7-1 with a 2.91 GAA and .890 save percentage in 18 starts this season. Expect a light workload the rest of the way, except for the post-Olympic period. Andrei Vasilevskiy will deserve and need a rest after Milano Cortina.

Johansson is set to start on the road against Columbus on Saturday, per Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers.

EDGE Analysis

Johansson will be making his first start since Jan. 12. He will get the second half of Tampa Bay's back-to-back, but has played sparingly behind Andrei Vasilevskiy. Johansson has a 10-6-1 record, 2.73 GAA and .896 save percentage in 18 outings this campaign. Columbus has won five of its past six games, outscoring the competition 18-12 across that stretch.

Johansson made 20 saves in a 5-1 win over the Flyers on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Well, well, well -- look at this. Johansson has won three straight games, allowing eight goals (.895 save percentage) in that span. He's a goalie who can get the Lightning wins, but he struggles to keep his counting stats to the league average. At the same time, Johansson isn't a fantasy liability, so you can get him in your blue paint when you know he's the starter.

Johansson will defend the cage on the road versus the Flyers on Monday, Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johansson will take the first game of the Lightning's back-to-back, which means Andrei Vasilevskiy figures to be the starter for Tuesday's road contest in Pittsburgh. In his 17 appearances this year, the 30-year-old Johansson is 9-6-1 with an .894 save percentage and 2.83 GAA.

Johansson made 17 saves in a 5-3 win over the Kings on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

It was a tight contest, with the Bolts finally netting the go-ahead snipe with just 1:41 left in the final frame. Johansson has won two straight games, allowing seven goals in that span. And he hasn't recorded a save percentage above .892 in his last five starts (3-1-1). Johansson benefits from the team in front of him, not the other way around. He's a spot start only option.
