Johnson stopped 20 of 22 shots in a win over the Panthers last Sunday. Johnson is 13-3-1 with a 2.22 GAA and .919 SV% as the B's backup this season. He has developed into one of the best spot-start options in fantasy this season. He should make for another good start this afternoon vs. Carolina.
Tuukka Rask stopped 35 shots last night, so after a busy night it would make sense for the B's to turn to Johnson tonight. He has won four of his last five starts with a 2.00 GAA and .918 SV%. He will need to be great again tonight as he likely goes head-to-head with Mike Smith, who is one of the hottest goalies in the NHL right now.
Johnson stopped 23 of 24 shots in a win over the Panthers on Tuesday. With Tuukka Rask getting the call last night, Johnson will get another crack at the Panthers tonight. However, this time around Roberto Luongo will be standing at the opposite end of the ice. If you are in need of a spot-start, Johnson looks like your only option.
Johnson surrendered five goals on 26 shots in a 5-4 OT loss to the Sabres last Wednesday. It was a tough outing for the 27-year-old, but he should be able to get back on track tonight vs. the Panthers. Johnson is 11-3-1 with a 2.30 GAA and .917 SV% this year.

With Tuukka Rask prepared to be the starter for Team Finland in Sochi, they will give him the day off as Johnson gets the nod vs. the Senators.

Johnson allowed two goals on 34 shots in a win of the Stars on Thursday. It was a strong outing for the B's number-2 and he will need a similar effort today when he goes head-to-head with Jonathan Quick. He would make for a risky spot-start behind a severely banged up blue line.

Johnson allowed two goals on 32 shots in a win over the Maple Leafs on Sunday. He has one each of his last four starts and draws a solid matchup against the Oilers. However, Edmonton also represents a risky spot-start as they have shown that they can light the lamp at any time.
Johnson allowed one goal on just 14 shots in a win over the Blue Jackets on November 30. He will get the start tonight in Toronto vs. the Maple Leafs. It is not an ideal spot-start matchup.

With Tuukka Rask taking on the Rangers on Friday, Johnson should get the start tonight and being first off would suggest that he will, but nothing is confirmed. He surrendered two goals on 24 shots in a win over the Hurricanes last Saturday. The W moved him to 3-1-0 with a 2.21 GAA and .917 SV%. He has already beat Columbus this season, so if he starts, he is worth spot-start consideration.

With Tuukka Rask in net on Monday, Johnson may get the nod on Tuesday. In his last start he allowed two goals on 34 shots in a win over the Blue Jackets. He has very little fantasy value because Rask sees the vast majority of the Bruins starts, but he could have some spot start value tonight vs. the Rangers 26th ranked offence.
