How to Beat the Goalie: Johnson

(Photo by: Matt Kartozian/USA Today Sports) Chad Johnson is trying to inch his way into the National Hockey League every chance he gets. His opportunity right now to start a game in the NHL is due to the loss of star goaltender Mike Smith. This will be Johnson's second stint in Glendale this season. When Johnson isn't in the NHL, he is normally in the American...

With Smith in doubt, Coyotes call up Johnson

3,000 Miles to go for a Shutout: Chad Johnson

The Phoenix Coyotes win the "first goalie ouch of the season", with Mike Smith on the IR with a "lower body injury". Mike Smith may be coming back later this week, but in the meantime, the Coyotes had to go to plan B, which in this case was first Jason "still here!" LaBarbera, and then to Chad Johnson, who's been playing for the Coyotes AHL affiliate...

Rangers recall Chad Johnson

Again, the Rangers have recalled goaltender Chad Johnson. Johnson was recalled for Tuesday’s win against the Hurricanes, and served as the backup to Martin Biron, while Henrik Lundqvist was out with the flu.

Chad Johnson called up

The Rangers have called up goaltender Chad Johnson from the CT Whale, likely to serve as the backup for tonight’s game. Henrik Lundqvist, who was not at the optional skate this morning (starting netminders rarely partake in these) is still likely to start. That means Martin Biron may have some sort of nagging issue that will keep him from dressing. No need to panic, this appears...

Thoughts On A Mixed Start for the Whale

The start of the hockey season also meant the start of the regular season for the Rangers affiliate, the CT Whale. The first pair of games produced a 1-1 record as the team lost 6-3 to Adirondack, after which the Whale rebounded with a 1-0 shootout win over Wilkes-Barre. Several players with Rangers hopes stood out over the first weekend’s play, and not all for the right reasons...
