Johnson dished out two assists in Tuesday's Game 6 loss to the Rangers, giving him 20 points in the playoffs. That's good for tops in the league, one point ahead of his linemate Nikita Kucherov and Anaheim's Ryan Getzlaf (who's played five fewer games). Johnson's dozen goals easily lead the playoffs, so it's nice to see him balance out his stat line with a couple helpers, although they both came in garbage time.

Johnson bolstered his case for the Conn Smythe Trophy again Wednesday night, producing a goal and assist in a 6-5 overtime win over the Rangers in Game 3. Johnson has rattled off 12 goals and 18 points in his 16 postseason games to date, with his Triplets line causing plenty of headaches for opposing defenses. The Rangers have had no answers for Johnson through the first three games, and could be in trouble with the two teams meeting up again in Tampa on Friday night.

Johnson recorded a hat trick -- scoring short-handed, on the power-play, and even strength -- in Monday's Game 2 win over the Rangers. With the Rangers on a 5-on-3 advantage, Johnson capitalized on a misplay to open up the scoring, then put the Bolts back up for good later in the period after the Rangers tied it. He's been tremendous all postseason, as his 16 points are tops in the league in the playoffs.

Johnson scored the game-winning goal Wednesday with 1.1 seconds remaining to lift the Lightning to a 2-1 victory over the Canadiens. Tampa now has a 3-0 series lead. It was his eighth goal of the postseason and 11th point in 10 games. And those eight markers lead all skaters in the NHL playoffs. MVP (so far)? Yup.

Johnson added two power-play helpers in Sunday's Game 2 win over the Canadiens. Johnson has been incredible in the playoffs as he's now up to 10 points in nine games, including four multi-point efforts. While he couldn't lead to his playoff-leading seven goals in Sunday's win, he was still able to turn in another productive night as he helped chip in on a power play unit that netted four goals. Keep him rolling as the series shifts back to Tampa on Wednesday.

Johnson scored his league-high seventh goal of the playoffs in Friday's Game 1 win over Montreal. Johnson is having an outstanding postseason and now has eight points in eight games. He's scored five goals in his last five games and is sporting a tidy plus-4 rating. With Steven Stamkos going through a slump, Johnson has stepped up and put the team on his back. Look for the 24-year-old to continue his dominance as the series wears on.

Johnson potted two goals in Monday's Game 6 win over the Red Wings. Johnson has been held off the scoresheet entirely in the Bolts' three losses in the series, but he's been incredible in the other three contests. The center has potted a pair of goals in each of the wins and is up to seven points in the series. He dealt with an upper-body injury toward the end of the season, but has shown no lingering effects whatsoever as the playoffs roll on.

Johnson scored twice, including the winner in overtime, and added an assist in a 3-2 win over the Red Wings on Thursday night. He's now tied for second in goals in the postseason (four) and tied for third in points (five). So much for a slow down -- this diminutive forward is red hot. He'll get Conn Smythe consideration if the Bolts make it through the East. He's just that good.

Johnson notched two goals in Saturday's Game 2 win over Detroit. He had six shots on net. His second goal, which came in the last minute of the second period, drove the score up to 4-0 and knocked starter Petr Mrazek from the net. His great season continues.

Johnson scored two goals, including the overtime winner on the power play, in a 4-3 victory over the Devils on Thursday night. He now has five points (three goals, two assists) in his last two games. He's now at 29 goals and 72 points on the season. And those 72 points tie him with Steven Stamkos for the team lead. It's an impressive total (so far) for a second-year player.
