Johannesson's offensive game revolves around making quick, simple yet effective plays with the puck. He can get the puck out of pressure swiftly and doesn't seem to get stressed even when there's little time on his hands. His puck skills looked good, and he can handle it well to give himself extra time. There's a real calmness to Johannesson's game; he's never chasing the play. -EliteProspects 2020 NHL Draft Guide
