Speculation: Is it time to pull the plug on Andreas Johnsson?

Here's a crazy idea.

Maybe we should give him a bit more icetime with skilled linemates and see what happens.

Wouldn't be one bit surprised if we get something similar to what happened to when Kap got that chance.

There are bigger problems on this team than him. Not even close to the proper time to let him go. You knew that tho. This is thread revenge for stealing your girl.

I don't believe I stated that this is the most important and most pressing issue. Johnsson is a 4th liner. Perhaps he will be in and out of the line up for another month, but I think it should be sooner.

He could be the this decade's Steen who was his decade's Brad Boyes though. Tempting....

There have been very few 20 year old players that get better after their first 20 games in the NHL. So yeah, if doesn’t improve in his next two games, he’ll probably do the right thing and pack it on his own.

That's fair and I will be the first to say "I was wrong...".

I am surprised and disappointed by his season so far.

Johnsson is holding out. He is just doing it in a way where he can get paid.
