2013-2014 Swedish Hockey League Rookie of the Year.
So far in the pre-season with Frolunda, Johnson has 14 points in 7 games.
Nice one
i was expecting a more serious response from you, since you know johnson more than the average joe here !! To me he looks like a briere-lite player (stylistically)
The younger players tend to play well during pre-season. He's certainly not going to put up these kind of numbers when the real season starts, but it looks promising.
whys that? Just wondering

Veteran players usually sit out as the kids try to carve out a spot on the team. It's the same as any other pre-season action, you don't risk injuring your roster players. Typically younger players get more games into get their feet wet, and gain momentum into the season.
Not the case here, and I expect him to be Frölunda's top scorer this season, it's either him or Olimb.

Just think of Viktor Stalberg in the preseason with his last season as a Leaf. Young guys try hard to get noticed and try and earn a better spot while older guys either dont play or just go through the motions
Found this on YT, he looks good.
Different situation my friend. The johnson-Olimb line is actually 50% of Frolunda's offense !! There are no veterans who will take his spot, lately he has been their offensive dynamo
Anyway, i've been following him since he was drafted. He has developped really well
Oh I dont doubt for a second thats its different and that hes going to be a really strong offensive force this year but im just saying I dont think he goes in to the regular season on a 2ppg pace. Should be good for him if he can live up to being the teams offensive leader at that age over a whole season
This is probably going to look like a realllly good pick sooner than later.
