The Kraken selected Johansson in the expansion draft from the Minnesota Wild as he had bounced around the NHL between New Jersey, Boston, Buffalo and the Wild after he left the Capitals who drafted him in the first round, 24th overall in 2009. Johansson has six goals and 23 points in 51 games with the Kraken this season. Daniel Sprong, a fourth round pick in 2022 and a 2023 sixth rounder are headed back with the Kraken retaining 50 percent of Johansson's salary.
