Three points in OT win Johansson scored a goal and added two assists, one on the power play, in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over Chicago.

Impact After picking up two points in the first period while the Wild surged out to a 3-1 lead, Johansson fed Mats Zuccarello for the OT winner. It was Johansson's most productive performance since Dec., 29, when he erupted for four points against the Golden Knights, and his tally snapped a 15-game goal drought in which he's picked up only six assists. On the season, the veteran winger has 14 goals and 43 points in 62 contests, and he still has a shot at recording his first 50-point campaign since 2016-17.

Ready to rock Johansson (upper body) will play against Utah on Tuesday, according to Jessi Pierce of NHL.com.

Impact Following a two-game absence, Johansson will replace Nico Sturm in Tuesday's lineup. The 35-year-old Johansson has accounted for 13 goals, 39 points and 78 shots on net across 57 appearances this season.

Out at least two games Johansson (upper body) will not be available for the Wild's two-game road trip that begins Friday in Vegas, Joe Smith of The Athletic reports.

Impact Johansson was injured in the third period Tuesday against Tampa Bay and did not return. The 35-year-old veteran has 13 goals and 26 assists across 57 appearances this season. Look for Michael McCarron to draw into the lineup, in place of Johansson.

Exits early after high hit Johansson sustained an apparent upper-body injury in the third period of Tuesday's game versus the Lightning and didn't return, Dylan Loucks of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Johansson exited the game after Darren Raddysh's hit in the third period. Prior to his exit, Johansson earned an assist, giving him 39 points over 57 contests this season. With no postgame update on his status, Johansson's availability for the Wild's two-game road trip (Friday in Vegas, Sunday in Colorado) is in doubt.

Distributes pair of assists Johansson supplied two assists in Monday's 4-3 overtime win over Montreal.

Impact Johansson recorded the primary helper on Joel Eriksson Ek's goal just 38 seconds into regulation before later feeding the puck up the ice to Brock Faber for the game-tying goal. With the pair of helpers, Johansson is up to 24 assists, 37 points and 78 shots on net through 52 games this season. Monday's multi-point game was the 16-year NHL veteran's first of the calendar year after posting strong offensive totals in December. If he can find a fraction of that pace down the stretch of the regular season, he has a chance to record the second 50-plus-point campaign of his career. Johansson is a solid streaming option in deep fantasy leagues while he holds a role in Minnesota's top six.

Picks up assist Johansson logged an assist and two shots on goal in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout win over the Blackhawks.

Impact The helper was Johansson's first point in three games since he returned from a lower-body injury. The 35-year-old winger continues to fill a second-line role for the Wild, which has seen him have a surprisingly productive campaign. He's now at 35 points in 49 appearances, surpassing his 34-point output from 72 regular-season contests in 2024-25.

Game-time call versus Wings Johansson (lower body) will be a game-time decision ahead of Thursday's clash with Detroit, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

Impact Johansson could return following a three-game stint on the shelf due to his lower-body issue. Prior to his absence, the 35-year-old winger appeared to be breaking out of a funk, having generated a point in each of his last two outings after having been held off the scoresheet in the previous six. If Johansson plays Thursday, he could fill a top-six role and bounce Yakov Trenin down the lineup.
