Johnson scored a goal on five shots and added a power-play assist in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Sabres.

Johnson is now on a seven-game point streak (four goals, seven assists). The 24-year-old has been one of the Blue Jackets' few consistent contributors on offense to begin 2026-27. He's up to eight goals, eight helpers, 34 shots on net and a plus-2 rating across 15 appearances, production that has earned him a spot on the top line and first power-play unit.
