Flyers' Erik Johnson: Scores, fights in win
Johnson scored a goal and added a fighting major in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout win over the Sharks.
Johnson was busy in the first two minutes of the game, scoring the opening goal and fighting Givani Smith. This was Johnson's first game back in the lineup after being a healthy scratch for three contests. He took Jamie Drysdale's (upper body) place in the lineup, though Johnson may return to the press box once Cam York (upper body) is cleared to play. Through 11 appearances, Johnson has two points, four shots on net, 19 hits, eight blocked shots and nine PIM.

Flyers' Erik Johnson: Helps out on penalty kill
Johnson logged an assist and two PIM in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Flames.
Johnson's assist came on a shorthanded tally by Travis Konecny in the second period. The 36-year-old Johnson appears to have the trust of head coach John Tortorella in a third-pairing role. Last season, Johnson managed just six points over 67 regular-season games between Buffalo and Philadelphia, though he also had 143 hits and 97 blocked shots. The veteran defenseman will play a limited role in 2024-25 and does not need to be tracked closely in fantasy.
