I think he'll pick it up when get at least Bratt back, more likely when we get both Bratt and Nico. But there's no sugar-coating it, so far the guy's been awful lol.

for those saying he was only good because of his linemates in toronto, we will have talent here too in the next few weeks. the cavalry is coming. i'd wait to judge until he gets a chance to play with peg leg or shit dick

There are a lot of guys playing higher in the lineup than they should be. Hopefully he's more effective when he gets pushed down the lineup.

Not that well right now. Think he'll probably do better if next to Nico, but it seems like it's taking some time to fit in. He hasn't looked good. Yet.

Invisible. Grabneresque.
He is on par with Tennyson for worst looking on the team thus far...and im not talking worst looking as Ginny Sachs, ya know?

Crappy and invisible still.

Danm, that's unfortunate. Really thought he would be able to take his game to another level in New Jersey.

The thing is, things like this make sense if it was just matter of being not in sync or non-individual reasons, but for Johnsson, all the issues are him. He can't ever seem to connect a pass, he can't seem to stay on his skates, he always seems clueless where the puck is...just terrible individual performance.

I think I would like them to try him with Hischier and Bratt once they are back....the Devils forward corps right now is so jumbled due to those injuries, its hard to get a read on some of these guys

but yes, Johnsson has been very quiet so far

Replaced "invisible" with another term (see your edited post). :sarcasm:

He plays like Stephen Gionta. Moves around a lot so you think his effort level is high but then you realize he's moving around a lot because he doesn't know what to do.

replace gio2 with johnsson on the CBGB line back in the day and no way it would be as effective …gio for his smaller size threw hits on the opposition and was one of the few players that did at the time…shit, he led the team in hits during the shortened '13 season…....i dont see this from johnsson at all

so far, i'd send him back to toronto if i could but we'll see once the lines get shuffled when nico and bratt are fully on the roster and playing
