Father: Craig Johnson Very skilled skater with good hockey sense and compete-level. Not a physical player, Johnson relies on his way of reading the game. Not too flashy either, when he is not skating with the puck, but a solid defender and a good team player. (EP 2019)

Johnson is a great skater, who can generate speed with ease and is nimble on his edges. He’s an elusive puck-carrier
—EPrinkside.com 2019

He plays with an active stick in the defensive zone and defends the blue line well by standing up opponents
—Future Considerations 2019

His mobility also extended to lateral and backwards motion, as he is very hard to beat with pure speed
—McKeen's Hockey 2019

He holds the offensive blueline nicely and has a knack for preventing chip outs and getting the puck back in deep
