Johnson potted a goal and fired five shots on net in Monday's 4-2 Game 2 victory over the Bruins.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson cashed in midway through the second period, taking a pass from Brayden Point in the slot before beating Tuukka Rask to give Tampa Bay a 2-1 lead. The 29-year-old pivot, who's notched three goals and four points in seven games this postseason, will look to keep rolling and help his team steal a game on the road Wednesday in Boston.

Johnson (undisclosed) will be in the lineup for Wednesday's Game 4 against the Devils, Mike Morreale of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson didn't practice Tuesday, and instead had a "body maintenance day," but it doesn't seem as though he was ever in serious danger of missing Game 4. The 29-year-old American, who's notched two goals and one assist in the first three games of the series, will slot into his usual role skating on Tampa Bay's second line and second power-play unit Wednesday evening.

Johnson skipped practice for a maintenance day, but may still be available Wednesday against New Jersey, Bryan Burns of the Lightning's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Coach Jon Cooper told reporters, "We'll have to see in the morning," when talking about whether Johnson would be ready for Game 4. In three postseason games, the Spokane, Washington native has tallied one goal, two helpers and six hits. If the natural center is unable to give it a go, Matthew Peca figures to replace him in the lineup.

Johnson had a goal and an assist in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Devils in the conference quarterfinals.

EDGE Analysis

Johnson got both of his points in the final five minutes of the opening frame, helping his team race out to a 2-0 lead it would never relinquish. This was a welcome return to form for the diminutive forward, who managed just a goal and an assist over his final 13 regular-season contests. Johnson's 44 points in 48 career playoff games suggest he's capable of much more, especially since half of those points are goals.

Johnson was held without a point Sunday against Nashville. It was the ninth time in his last 10 games that he failed to register a point.

EDGE Analysis

He's been stuck at 49 points for five games. Johnson has recorded 21 goals, but it seems as though that 72-point season in 2014-15 was a complete anomaly. Johnson's previous best was 50 points, a mark he will be pressed to match given his current slump. The Bolts need him to find his game again, especially with Steven Stamkos' injury Sunday.

Johnson notched his 20th goal of the season in Saturday's 3-2 shootout win over Montreal.

EDGE Analysis

It's his third 20-goal season, but his first since 2014-15. Johnson is on a three-game, three-point streak (two goals, one assist). Take advantage.

Johnson (undisclosed) was a full participant in practice Wednesday and coach Jon Cooper indicated afterward that he "should be in" for the evening's contest against the Sabres, Bryan Burns of the Lightning's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

It appears Johnson should be good to go for the matchup despite joking with reporters that they would need to show up to see if he would play. He slotted in alongside Chris Kunitz and newly-acquired J.T. Miller during morning skate and figures to line up there to begin Wednesday's matchup.

Johnson (undisclosed) said he feels good, but implied that he'll be a game-time decision for Wednesday's home clash with the Sabres, Bryan Burns of the Lightning's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

The power-play pivot's fantasy owners held their collective breath when a ref's skate caught him in Tuesday's contest against the Maple Leafs. However, Burns relayed from Lightning coach Jon Cooper that Johnson should be fit to play in the upcoming contest. Still, it's probably best to make sure that the 27-year-old shows up for pregame warmups.

Johnson was spotted walking with a limp after Monday's win over the Maple Leafs, Joe Smith of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Little is known on Johnson's exact injury, but he's expected to be re-evaluated ahead of Wednesday's game against the Sabres. Johnson scored a goal with 19:45 of playing time Monday.

Johnson dished out two assists -- one on the power play -- in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

Both of Johnson's points came in a dominant second period, which saw the hosts grow their 1-0 lead after one into a dominant 4-0 edge with three unanswered tallies. He hasn't lit the lamp since a Jan. 9 hat trick, but at least Johnson has a respectable seven assists in 11 games over that stretch.
