Wow good job Marlies!!
I wish I had more time to catch the AHL games this year.
Is Andreas really dominating as boldly as the stats show? Any insight please
Johnsson looks like a top 6 nhl winger playing in the AHL.

I don't think its crazy at this point to suggest Johnsson can slide into JVR's minutes next year.Thanks, that’s really encouraging! I’m so glad he’s making big strides, guy is a gamer!
I remember when he first came over to NA I was so bloody excited and then he got destroyed in his second (I think) game and I was so worried. So so so happy for the kid! Keep rolling Andreas!!!
Yeah, and it's not like you can't see the similarities.Justin Bourne once tweeted that Dubas told Johnsson that he has the tools to be as good as Arvidsson.
This was back when Bourne was the video coach with the Marlies.
From what I remember it was at a team dinner or something and Dubas said something along the lines of "What's the difference between you and Arvidsson? What's stopping you becoming the next Arvidsson?" Don't remember exactly what it was.Justin Bourne once tweeted that Dubas told Johnsson that he has the tools to be as good as Arvidsson.

To be fair to them for a very long time very few leafs posters ranked Johnsson in our top 10 prospectsGotta love the dolts on hfboards. Phantoms just got swept despite Lyon playing incredible hockey and the Flyers Hfboards base is saying that Johnsson isn't a top 10 prospect on their team. I hope nothing but the worst for the flyers.
I've liked Holl from he arrived here and he's learning and adjusting to the pro game well.I've only caught a handfull of Marlies games but everytime I watch Holl looks like a guy who could play in NHL.
Can skate, handle the puck, makes efficient pass's, has good size and has some offensive ability.
Someone who's watched him more whats his defensive game like and his hockeysense?
He has the skillset to play in the league.

The biggest flaw I keep hearing of him is he's just too darn nice to be a big mean Dman in the NHL.I've only caught a handfull of Marlies games but everytime I watch Holl looks like a guy who could play in NHL.

I think Liljegren and shockingly Marincin have been our most impressive defensemen to me. Dermott has been underwhelming unfortunately
For sure you try to give Johnsson term, I think with all our Capologists in the office now they'll recognize that as wellDespite being roundly mocked and pilloried by people here, looks like I'm not the only one who recognizes the benefits of taking a flier on Johnsson. He has exactly the qualities this team needs so it stands to reason its worth it to take a tiny risk and offer him a Brown/Hyman style extension.

I think thats almost a good thing. Dermott is the best d man, but others have been better, and we are going to the final.I think Liljegren and shockingly Marincin have been our most impressive defensemen to me. Dermott has been underwhelming unfortunately

I’d gladly give Johnsson 6 years on a lower cap hit.
Yep, I think he's a guaranteed 40 point player with potential for much more, so anything under 3.5-4 is good with me on a very long term contractI’d gladly give Johnsson 6 years on a lower cap hit.
