Devils' Andreas Johnsson: Halts point drought at nine games

Johnsson dished out an assist in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Islanders.

Johnsson's 7:04 of ice time was the least among New Jersey's skaters, but he still found time to contribute on Jack Hughes' goal, which capped the scoring with 4:08 left in regulation. The winger's capable of sliding up and down the lineup, but he's seen his usage reduced significantly as he's gone through a nine-game point drought. Perhaps this assist will help Johnsson bust out of his slump while earning a larger role in the process.
