Chad Johnson News

The Ducks have claimed Chad Johnson off of waivers from the Blues.

Claiming Johnson suggests that Ryan Miller’s lower-body injury is going to cost him a good chunk of time. The Ducks have not provided an update on Miller’s status but expect Johnson to serve as John Gibson’s backup moving forward.

Johnson will start against the Jets on Saturday.

Johnson allowed four goals on 29 shots in the Blues loss in San Jose last Saturday. With Jake Allen starting last night, the Blues will go back to Johnson tonight vs. the Jets. The 32-year-old is 2-3-0 with a 2.08 GAA, .927 SV% and one shutout on home-ice this season, but the Jets 3.14 goals for per-game presents some challenges.
