*Marcus Johansson did not practice today, 12 hours after the second-year center left the game in Chicago with an illness. Boudreau said Johansson caught a cold and was feeling dizzy on the ice “without getting hit.” So they’re resting him.

Just a precautionary measure as Johansson likely has an illness opposed to a concussion. Johansson scored 13 goals and 27 points in his first 69 NHL games. He should be centering the top line and Alex Ovechkin once healed.

“I think he’s going to come in with a little more confidence, but at the same time, knowing his character, he’s going to be the player he was at the end of the year and not the beginning of the year.”

Johansson should receive even more valuable minutes in the upcoming season after his solid rookie season and postseason. Should Nicklas Backstrom falter or succumb to injury, expect Johansson to step up as Alex Ovechkin's pivot.
