Johnson collected two assists, one on the power play, in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime loss to Pittsburgh.

EDGE Analysis

Both points came in the first period, helping Columbus jump out to a 4-0 lead that they somehow squandered. Johnson is still only 20 years old and playing for a team gunning for the top pick in the Connor Bedard draft, so his lack of consistent production in the NHL isn't a big surprise, but he continues to offer glimpses of his skill and upside. Through 61 games this season, he's picked up 13 goals and 31 points.

Johnson scored the game-winning goal in a 3-1 win over Winnipeg on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson showed off his incredible hands with a surprising turn-around shot from the right circle at the mid-point of the third period. The rookie has four goals (six points) in his last eight games, and he now sits in a tie for fourth on both the rookie point board (27) and goals (12).

Johnson scored the game-winning goal and added an assist in Saturday's 4-3 win over Toronto.

EDGE Analysis

There was a little controversy surrounding his tally early in the third period as it appeared to have been redirected behind Joseph Woll with a high stick, but it was ruled a good goal upon review. Johnson is beginning to flash his significant upside, producing multi-point performances in three of the last eight games, and on the season the 20-year-old has 11 goals and 26 points through 50 games.

Johnson scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Kraken.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson tallied late in the second period after the Kraken committed a turnover in the neutral zone. The goal was his fifth point over the last five games. The 20-year-old is up to 10 tallies, 24 points, 65 shots on net and a minus-5 rating through 47 appearances, doing well enough to regularly log middle-six minutes.

Johnson scored a goal on four shots in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Oilers.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson secured the win halfway through overtime, snapping a 15-game goal drought with his first career overtime tally. The 20-year-old had five assists during that slump -- he's yet to find consistency at both ends of the ice, leading to a fluctuation in role and playing time. He's up to nine tallies, 13 helpers, 63 shots on net and a minus-5 rating through 45 contests this season.

Johnson recorded two assists in Saturday's win over San Jose.

EDGE Analysis

Put on a line with veterans Boone Jenner and Gustav Nyquist after a sluggish start to the game for the Blue Jackets, Johnson set up each of his linemates for goals with some slick stickwork, including Nyquist's game-winner midway through the third period. The rookie hasn't scored a goal of his own in 14 straight games and has managed only five assists over that stretch, but Johnson still flashes enough upside to give him fantasy value in dynasty and keeper formats. On the season, the 20-year-old has eight goals and 21 points through 43 games.

Johnson picked up two assists and was a minus-1 rating in the Blue Jackets' 4-3 shootout win over the Hurricanes on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

The third star of Saturday's contest, Johnson picked up helpers on both power-play goals by Kirill Marchenko in the second period. This performance snaps Johnson's five-game pointless streak and could mark the start of a hot streak. On the season, Johnson has eight goals and 18 points.

Johnson scored his eighth goal of the season in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Flyers.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson and Kirill Marchenko scored less than three minutes apart early in the second period to give Columbus a 2-1 lead, but Philly's own young guns quickly answered back. Johnson has found the back of the net in back-to-back games since moving up to center the top line between Johnny Gaudreau and Patrik Laine, both of whom picked up assists on Tuesday's tally, and the 20-year-old has the elite offensive skills to hang with his two more experienced linemates. With Boone Jenner (thumb) out until the new year, Johnson appears set for an extended audition in the spotlight.

Johnson scored his seventh goal of the season in Monday's 2-1 loss to the Stars.

EDGE Analysis

Columbus was blanked for over 59 minutes, but Johnson ruined Jake Oettinger's shutout bid by sneaking a backhander past him with only 15 seconds left on the clock. The 20-year-old rookie didn't look out of place skating on the top line between Johnny Gaudreau and Patrik Laine, and while he has more value in dynasty formats than re-drafts leagues, Johnson could have some short-term fantasy appeal while he holds down that assignment.

Johnson scored a goal in Columbus' 4-2 loss to Detroit on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson has six goals and 13 points in 20 games this season. He's only been held off the scoresheet once in his last four contests. He hasn't had a scoring drought of more than two games so far in 2022-23, which is made more impressive by the fact that Johnson isn't playing a substantial role with the team. He went into Sunday's contest averaging just 12:35 of ice time. The 20-year-old logged a season-low 8:14 in Friday's 4-1 victory over Winnipeg, but that jumped to 15:18 on Sunday.
