Johansson signed a one-year, $800,000 contract with Minnesota on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Johansson was set to hit free agency this offseason but instead will be sticking around for another year. The 34-year-old forward will be taking a significant pay cut compared to his $2 million cap hit last year, despite having put together a third straight 30-point campaign. Johansson figures to slot into a middle-six role for Minnesota next year and could push up higher depending on injuries.

Johansson (lower body) will return to the lineup for Game 5 against the Golden Knights on Tuesday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johansson should offer some offensive pop to the Wild's lineup, considering he has chipped in three goals and five helpers, including two power-play points, in his last 10 outings. With the veteran winger back in the lineup, he figures to slot into both a top-six role at even strength as well as seeing minutes with the No. 2 power-play unit.

Johansson (lower body) will miss Game 4 versus Vegas on Saturday, according to Sarah McLellan of The Minnesota Star Tribune.

EDGE Analysis

Johansson had 11 goals and 34 points across 72 regular-season outings in 2024-25. He has an assist through three playoff appearances this year. The 34-year-old forward will miss at least one game after getting hurt in Thursday's 5-2 victory over the Golden Knights. Vinnie Hinostroza will replace Johansson in Saturday's lineup.

Johansson's status is still up in the air for Game 4 against Vegas on Saturday after he suffered an undisclosed injury Thursday in Game 3, Jessi Pierce of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johansson has one assist through three playoff games, seeing action on the second line alongside Frederick Gaudreau and Mats Zuccarello. Should Johansson sit out Saturday's tilt, look for Vinnie Hinostroza to enter the lineup.

Johansson (undisclosed) didn't finish Thursday's Game 3 versus the Golden Knights, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Russo notes Johansson took some heavy hits in the contest. The 34-year-old winger can be considered day-to-day heading into Saturday's Game 4, which starts at 4 p.m. Eastern. The Wild have already made their Black Aces call-ups, so they have plenty of options available if Johansson can't suit up.

Johansson logged an assist and two hits in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 2.

EDGE Analysis

Johansson set up a Mats Zuccarello tally in the first period, which stood as the game-winner. Johansson had nine points over the last 11 contests of the regular season, wrapping up the year at 34 points in 72 appearances. The 34-year-old is filling a middle-six role and may generate some depth offense, but he adds little to the mix aside from points and shots on net.

Johansson scored a goal on four shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Ducks.

EDGE Analysis

Johansson has three goals and four assists over seven contests in April. He scored the opening goal Tuesday and also set up Matt Boldy's game-winner at 4:42 of overtime. Johansson is up to 11 goals, 34 points, 121 shots on net, 49 hits and a minus-7 rating over 72 appearances. He should slot into a middle-six role and see time on the second power-play unit during the postseason.

Johansson scored a goal on two shots in Wednesday's 8-7 overtime win over the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Johansson made an early impact, tying the game at 1-1 in the first period. The winger was down on the third line Wednesday following the returns of Kirill Kaprizov (lower body) and Joel Eriksson Ek (lower body). That shift in usage will hurt Johansson's scoring in the last week of the season, and he doesn't make up for it with production in other areas. While he has seven points over his last eight games, he may struggle to close out 2024-25. He's managed 10 goals, 32 points, 114 shots on net, 45 hits and a minus-8 rating across 69 outings this season.

Johansson recorded an assist in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Islanders.

EDGE Analysis

Johansson stayed hot with a helper on Mats Zuccarello's tally in the second period. The 34-year-old Johansson has two goals and four assists over his last six contests while seeing time on the second line and first power-play unit. The veteran winger is up to 31 points in 67 appearances, surpassing his 30-point total from last season. He's added 109 shots on net, 44 hits, 24 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating in 2024-25, so he shouldn't be relied on for non-scoring production.

Johansson scored a shorthanded goal and added two assists, one on the power play, in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

The shortie was the first of the season for the 34-year-old, while the three-point performance tied his season high. Johansson is having a strong finish to the regular season as the Wild try to lock up a playoff spot, collecting four goals and 11 points in 15 games since the beginning of March.
