Flyers' Erik Johnson: Helps out on penalty kill
Erik Johnson logged an assist and two PIM in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Flames.Johnson's assist came on a shorthanded tally by Travis Konecny in the second period. The 36-year-old Johnson appears to have the trust of head coach John Tortorella in a third-pairing role. Last season, Johnson managed just six points over 67 regular-season games between Buffalo and Philadelphia, though he also had 143 hits and 97 blocked shots. The veteran defenseman will play a limited role in 2024-25 and does not need to be tracked closely in fantasy.
