EDGE Analysis

EDGE Analysis
Johns registered 16 hits, five blocks and eight shots in his four playoff appearances this season. The 27-year-old defenseman previously missed over a year due to concussion-related issues, so fans will be hoping this latest ailment isn't related. In the meantime, Taylor Fedun will maintain his spot in the third pairing.
