Ross Johnston - NHL News & Rumors

Ruled out for Game 1 Johnston (lower body) has been ruled out for Monday's Game 1 against Edmonton, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Johnston fully participated in Monday's morning skate, but he'll remain sidelined to begin the playoffs as he continues to deal with a lower-body issue. However, head coach Joel Quenneville said Monday that he expects Johnston to play at some point during the Ducks' first-round series, so the 32-year-old should be considered day-to-day for now.

Out 3-4 weeks Johnston (lower body) is expected to miss 3-4 weeks, per Derek Lee of The Hockey News.

Impact Johnston had already missed the Ducks' last three games before the timeline was announced. The 31-year-old winger has put together the best offensive season of his career with three goals, 14 points, 33 shots, 192 hits and 107 PIM over 62 appearances. While Johnston doesn't offer much fantasy value from a scoring standpoint, he has been a fixture on Anaheim's fourth line and provides physicality that the Ducks will miss during his absence.

Ruled out against Flyers Johnston (lower body) will not be in the lineup versus Philadelphia on Wednesday, Zach Cavanagh of The Sporting Tribune reports.

Impact Johnston will miss his fourth straight game due to his lingering lower-body problem. While the 32-year-old winger has already put together career numbers in goals (three) and assists (11), he still doesn't offer enough offensive production to be fantasy relevant.

Dealing with injury Johnston (lower body) didn't participate in Tuesday's practice, per Zach Cavanagh of The Sporting Tribune.

Impact Johnston has missed the last three games due to the injury, and he could sit out another contest against Philadelphia on Wednesday. He has contributed three goals, 14 points, 33 shots on net, 192 hits and 107 PIM in 62 appearances this season.

Capitalizes on turnover Johnston scored a goal on three shots in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Kraken.

Impact Philipp Grubauer misplayed a puck behind the net, and Jansen Harkins was able to feed Johnston in close range before the Seattle goalie got back into position. Johnston ended a 13-game point drought with the tally. The 31-year-old winger has seen consistent playing time in the Ducks' bottom six for much of the campaign, though his offense hasn't always followed suit. This is still easily the best year of his career with three goals, 13 points, 30 shots on net, 163 hits, 88 PIM and a minus-4 rating over 54 appearances.

Earns helper after brief absence Johnston registered an assist and added four hits in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Lightning.

Impact Johnston missed Monday's game versus the Sharks due to an illness but was able to limit the absence to that one contest. The 31-year-old has chipped in four assists over his last seven outings while playing in a fourth-line role. He's had a career year with 11 points, 22 shots on net, 115 hits, 62 PIM and a minus-2 rating over 38 appearances, but his bottom-six usage is still too risky for many fantasy formats.
