The Coyotes picked Johansson up on waivers and he was only able to appear in one preseason game before getting hurt. The lack of evaluation could hurt Johansson's chance of landing the No.2 role behind Karel Vejmelka.



The Coyotes picked Johansson up on waivers and he was only able to appear in one preseason game before getting hurt. The lack of evaluation could hurt Johansson's chance of landing the No.2 role behind Karel Vejmelka.

Since being taken in the third-round of the 2014 NHL Draft, Johansson has appeared in just 32 NHL games. He's gone 9-13-4 with a 3.46 GAA and .882 SV% with the Sabres, Avalanche and Panthers. Arizona may be the only destination where Johansson could actually land a backup role in the NHL for the 2022-23 season.





Johansson was placed on waivers because Pavel Francouz returned to the Avalanche over the weekend. Johansson has posted a 3.89 GAA and .880 SV% in six games this season and will be the Panthers' No.3 netminder moving forward.
