Johansson produced an assist and fired six shots on goal in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Johansson had a hand in Jared McCann's second-period tally. In his last four games, Johansson has racked up a goal, four helpers and 10 shots. The Swede is up to 15 points in 33 contests, surpassing his 14-point effort in 36 outings last season. He's tacked on 57 shots on net and a minus-14 rating this season. His recent surge in offense will likely only help fantasy managers who can weather rostering a Kraken skater that will likely be an anchor in plus-minus.

Johansson logged an assist, two blocked shots and two PIM in Thursday's 2-1 overtime win over the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
Johansson helped out on a Jared McCann game-tying goal with 3:56 left in regulation. During a three-game point streak, Johansson has one goal and three assists. The Swede has looked solid in a top-line role lately, which has helped him put a slow start to the season in the rear-view mirror. He's up to 14 points, 51 shots on net and a minus-15 rating through 32 games. Johansson needed 36 games last season to produce 14 points, though he's still not the consistent source of offense he once was back in his tenure with the Capitals.

Johansson registered two assists, including one on the power play, in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
Johansson had a hand in both of the Kraken's goals. The 31-year-old has looked good lately with three tallies and four helpers in his last nine outings. That's production more aligned with his first-line role, though his season stats through 31 games -- 13 points, 50 shots on net and a minus-16 rating -- still leave quite a bit to be desired. He's picked up eight of his points with the man advantage.

Johansson scored a goal on two shots in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
Johansson got the Kraken on the board at 5:02 of the second period. It was his first goal and point in four games. The Swede has shown some promise with three goals and two assists in his last eight outings while playing in a top-six role. Johansson's at five tallies, 11 points, 49 shots on net and a minus-15 rating through 30 contests overall.

Johansson scored a power-play goal on two shots in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Johansson got the Kraken on the board midway through the second period, but that was all they managed against Cal Petersen and the Kings. While the Kraken's offense has struggled with just seven goals in its last four games, Johansson has picked up four points in that span, including three on the power play. The Swede is at 10 points (seven on the power play), 46 shots on net and a minus-17 rating in 26 appearances overall.

Johansson notched a power-play assist and two shots on goal in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Johansson zipped a pass to Calle Jarnkrok in the slot to set up the Kraken's first goal of the game. The 31-year-old Johansson has three points in his last two contests after snapped a 10-game drought. The Swede hasn't found a ton of success with nine points (six on the power play), 43 shots on net and a minus-16 rating in 24 contests. He may be worth a look in deeper formats as a scoring-only option while he's logging top-line minutes.

Johansson scored a power-play goal, dished an assist and blocked two shots in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Johansson entered Monday on a 10-game point skid, but he ended it at 9:16 of the first period by deflecting a Jordan Eberle pass into the net. He also set up Jared McCann's tally in the second. The 31-year-old Johansson hasn't been very consistent this season, logging just eight points with 41 shots on net and a minus-15 rating through 23 appearances. He's better than the stats suggest, but fantasy managers need not rush to add him after his second multi-point effort of the campaign.

Johansson recorded a power-play assist and two shots on goal in Wednesday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Red Wings.
EDGE Analysis
Johansson set up Vince Dunn for the Kraken's first goal of the game. The assist ended a three-game dry spell for Johansson, his longest drought of the season so far. He has six points, 29 shots and a minus-5 rating through 12 contests, but he has yet to record a point in consecutive outings.

Johansson scored a goal on two shots in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Hurricanes.
EDGE Analysis
Johansson tallied through a screen at 16:52 of the third period to put the Kraken ahead for the first time in the contest. That goal stood as the game-winner, and it was his second marker of the year. The Swede now has five points, 21 shots on net and a minus-4 rating through eight contests. He's provided a boost to the Kraken's top six since he came back from a lower-body injury.

Johansson produced a power-play assist and three shots on goal in Friday's 7-3 loss to the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Johansson has provided a little spark to the Kraken's offense with a goal and three helpers in five games since he was activated from injured reserve. The 31-year-old has earned three of those points on the power play. The Swede's success on offense should continue to see him playing in a top-six role with first-unit time on the power play, so he could be a helpful scoring-only option in deeper fantasy formats.
