Trade him for futures if he's done here. A solid lefty D prospect or something. Or a package deal that brings in a top four D.
Hard to figure where Johansson slots in the lineup as soon as next season if Kuznetsov comes over. Kuznetsov/Erat should be 1/2 LW so Johansson's value to the Caps should be partially tied to what he'd be worth on the third line and with likely significantly less PP time. That's something Burakovsky should be capable of at some point, perhaps sooner than later if he has a huge season. Johansson not being relied upon as a center significantly diminishes his value to the Caps.
I'm torn between making a joke about Kuznetsov being a center, or about trading Burakovsky during the season because there's no room on the left side.
