Hot Streak
And he did. In addition to his goal, Johansson assisted on a goal by linemate Troy Brouwer, drew a penalty with an inside-out move in the first period and made a perfect centering pass to Brouwer that resulted in another Tampa penalty.
Johansson's benching was an attempt to wake up the sophomore center. The recently-turned 21-year-old certainly proved himself worthy of a scoring-line role.

Look for Johansson to center the second line and the second PP unit.

Welcome back to normal, Marcus Johansson. At the Capitals' Sunday practice, it looked like he would be back in the lineup for Monday night's game against the Lightning.
Certainly sounds like the team will rotate Johansson and Perreault for the time being. Look for Johansson to draw into tomorrow's game.

#Pens goalie Fleury gets the start tonight vs. Calgary
Over four career starts against the Flames, Fleury holds a 2-1-0 record, a tidy 1.30 GAA with one shutout and a .959 SV%.
Line Change
Certainly appears that Marcus Johansson is healthy scratch tonight for #Caps.
After centering Alex Ovechkin most of the preseason, Johansson is beaten out of a job by Matthieu Perreault. Last season he scored 13 goals and 27 points last season, moving between the first and third line pivot. He should at least climb to the 40-point level this season.

Marc-Andre Fleury will be in goal when the Penguins drop the puck on the new season just after 10 p.m. today against the Canucks in Vancouver, British Columbia.
Fleury has faced the Canucks three times over his career, posting a 1-2-0 record with a 3.01 GAA and .902 SV%.

“I think he wants to change something to get something to happen,” Johansson said. “He wants to try something new. He's the coach, so he decides.”
Doesn't sound like Johansson has fallen completely out of favor. Last season he scored 13 goals and 27 points last season, moving between the first and third line pivot. He should at least climb to the 40-point level this season.
Line Change
That meant Marcus Johansson moving to first-line left wing. Everything else is similar.
Sounds like Johansson is still in the doghouse. Last season he scored 13 goals and 27 points last season, moving between the first and third line pivot. He should at least climb to the 40-point level this season.
