I really don't want to see Johnson in net again. He's been that bad.

Me neither but Halak has been somewhat injury prone over his career. I'm afraid of overworking him to the point where he ends up injured. I assume Johnson is going to get the nod against Tampa tomorrow night, which is a little scary.

If Detroit was still in the West then tonight would have been the night to start Johnson, since even if we lost we wouldn't be giving points to an in-conference team.

thankfully johnson isn't in net. if tampa plays nabby tomorrow maybe that'll be a good time to put him in.

Halak's had 3 full days off. A short trip home tonight. Why put Johnson in against the highest scoring team in the NHL?

(Cptj's response pending.... Capuanosense!)

Look at the Atlantic standings. 4 teams within 2 points of first place. Scary

Johnson definitely has been the PASSENGER on this team. he is only one yet to contribute.

But please don't ever Say POULIN. Poulin makes Johnson seem like he playing well.

Johnson need to control rebounds better and eliminate those stupid, Wrist shot goals where he looks like he was catch a butterfly.

why b/c Detroit will be tougher game. Also Tampa is without Bishop in net. So its going to be a 5-4 isles win tomorrow. As Johnson gives up his Token 4 GA.

Kind of like Poulin eh?

That pic needs to be added to every blog response you write for the rest of eternity.

Also, a shout out to EK, for not letting this thread fall off the board even though an analogy to Ol' Yeller maybe apprapo.
