Johnson won his fourth Kelly Cup with the ECHL's Florida Everblades during the 2025-26 season and was also the MVP of the Kelly Cup Playoffs, finishing the playoffs with a 1.88 goals-against average and a .923 save percentage.

He was also the MVP of the Kelly Cup Playoffs in 2022 and 2023. He finished the 2025-26 regular season with a 1.84 goals-against average and a .923 save percentage.

Johnson gives WBS more depth at the goaltender position for the 2026-27 season, despite still having Joel Blomqvist and Taylor Gauthier.

Blomqvist and Gauthier are expected to be the 1-2 tandem in WBS if Sergei Murashov makes the NHL team.
