Three crosses in win Johnston had three crosses (zero accurate) and zero chances created in Sunday's 2-1 win over D.C. United.

Impact Johnston had plenty of chances during Saturday's win but ended with an all-around wasteful showing, failing to create a chance in the win. The right-back has been quiet offensively throughout the season with just 15 chances created in 21 appearances despite sending in 58 crosses. Johnston will be back in the starting XI against NYCFC next time out.

Sends 11 crosses in shutout win Johnston held a clean sheet and added one shot (off target), 11 crosses (two accurate) and one tackle won in Saturday's 1-0 win over Toronto.

Impact Johnston and the Montreal back line held first clean sheet in nine matches since May and only second all season. The wing-back has mounted 17 crosses over his past three matches alone and with one goal and three assists on the season already he could be a fantasy weapon if the team can sustain that defensive form.

Makes three interceptions in loss Johnston made three interceptions and created one chance from two crosses (one accurate) during Wednesday's 2-1 loss to Nashville SC.

Impact Johnston has picked up the pace with three assists and one goal in the last seven matches, which is solid for someone who's played as much in defense as on the flank in the last two seasons. He'll next face Real Salt Lake, which are tied for the seventh-most crosses conceded to midfielders in the league.

Assists again Johnston provided one assist on one chance created during Saturday's 2-1 win over Vancouver.

Impact Johnston has already improved on his career best for assists in a season, moving to two during Saturday's win. The wing-back is looking like a more and more fantasy relevant option as he grows into the season and is worth targeting in all formats. Johnston will hope to keep this going Saturday, away against Philadelphia.

Assists in road win Johnston assisted one goal from two chances created, sent in three crosses (one accurate) and made one clearance in Saturday's 2-1 win at NY Red Bulls.

Impact Johnston's own goal looked like it could be costly when it put his side down 2-1 in the 20th minute of Saturday's game, but Montreal battled back and outlasted Cincinnati in a shootout. This was the third consecutive game in which his side conceded at least three goals however, and he will need to do better next weekend against the Red Bulls, which have scored nine times in five MLS matches this season.

Impact Johnston had an excellent year in 2021, keeping five clean sheets in 26 starts for MLS's joint-best defense according to goals conceded. The 23-year-old is most comfortable at right back or right midfield, but he's versatile enough to play in central defense, too. The Canadian international should slot right into Montreal's starting XI.

Creates two chances in draw Johnston created two chances on three inaccurate crosses during Sunday's one-all draw with NYRB.

Impact Johnston did well to created two chances even if he failed to get on the scoresheet Sunday. The right-back generally failed to get much done offensively and is an underwhelming option in most matchups. That said he may have some upside against Orlando to open the playoffs.
