Johnson was activated from the taxi squad Monday.
EDGE Analysis
The Wild still have a few players in COVID-19 protocol, so Johnson could suit up for Tuesday's road game versus the Kings. The 26-year-old has played two games this season, registering a minus-2 rating and no points.

Johnson was assigned to Minnesota's taxi squad Friday.
EDGE Analysis
The Wild's games have been postponed through Tuesday, so there's a chance Johnson will be added to the active roster prior to the team's next contest, whenever that may be. The 26-year-old forward has gone scoreless in two games this campaign.

Johnson was activated from the taxi squad Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson has been on the taxi squad all year, but he could get a shot with the big club. His first opportunity will be in Sunday's game against the Avalanche. The 26-year-old has 18 career NHL games under his belt, posting an assist, 37 hits and a minus-11 rating.

Per CapFriendly, Johnson cleared waivers and resides on the taxi squad.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson failed to make the Wild roster out of training camp, and he has resided on the team's taxi squad for the entire campaign before the AHL season gets underway. The North Dakota product spent the entire 2019-20 season with AHL Iowa, racking up 18 goals and 31 points over 42 games. Expect Johnson to spend most of his time with the taxi squad and in the minors this season.

The Wild reassigned Johnson to AHL Iowa on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
With Joel Eriksson-Ek (upper body) ready to return from a three-game absence, the Wild chose to usher Johnson the the minors for the roster spot. The 25-year-old is a minus-3 and went pointless in three games with the big club this campaign.

Johnson signed a two-year, two-way contract with the Wild on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson has spent the majority of the past three seasons with AHL Rockford, totaling 78 points in 199 appearances. The 2013 fifth-round pick will likely stick with Minnesota's AHL affiliate for most, if not all of the 2019-20 campaign, so there's no reason for him to be on fantasy owners' radars.

Johnson didn't receive a qualifying offer from the Blackhawks on Tuesday, Scott Powers of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson wasn't going to be anything more than an organizational depth option for Chicago in 2019-20, so it makes sense for both parties to go their separate ways. He'll be seeking a two-way deal with a new organization once he hits free agency on July 1.

The Blackhawks reassigned Johnson to AHL Rockford on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Johnson wasn't very effective during his brief stay with the big club, firing one shot on goal while averaging just 8:50 of ice time in two contests. The 24-year-old pivot will return to a prominent role with Rockford, where he's notched four goals and seven points in 10 games this campaign.

The Blackhawks recalled Johnson from AHL Rockford on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Chicago placed Marcus Kruger (concussion) on injured reserve in a corresponding move, so Johnson will likely round out the team's depth up front until Kruger is cleared to return. The 24-year-old American has notched four goals and seven points in 10 AHL appearances this campaign.
