My brother is a Red Wings fan, so I would like to appreciate Johnson for his heroics back then.

I doubt Johnny has anything left in the tank. Considering we have figured out the power play I don’t really know where we would use him

While he did have a genuinely good final playoff run with us, in the big picture he was already washed at that point. It'd leave a shitty taste in everyone's mouth if he returned here, imo.

God those goals were so special. The winner against Montreal was soul crushing for them. It was an absolute treat to get revenge on them. The winner against Detroit totally changed things imo. It felt like they hit a new level of belief at that point. Even though we lost in the final, that run helped our guys so much and I'm glad Johnson got to be a part of it all.

Id welcome him back simply for the fact that he can't be worse than Atkinson or Sheary. If anything, he's a depth piece for 8-10mins in a playoff game where he likely won't f*** something up.
