Jack Johnson is overrated. He doesn't play his position well, they don't use him often in defensive zone starts and his plus-minus (a stat that normally doesn't mean much) is terrible. If you ever watched his performance vs the Sharks last year in the playoffs, you would know that he just isn't strong in his own end. People look at how high he was drafted and his stats while playing in Michigan. What people don't realize is that he also was used as a forward there. Once Sutter was coach, JJ's days were going to be numbered, since he doesn't fit well with a structured defensive system.
