  • Kent Johnson (4-3-7, 5 GP) scored twice tonight (2-0-2) with goals on the power play and while shorthanded in his first game back from injury.  He’s the 8th different player (10th instance) in CBJ history to record one of each in a game (MR: Jack Roslovic, Dec. 11, 2022).  Rick Nash and Tyler Wright accomplished the feat twice.
