[edit] Playing career
Johnsson was selected 286th overall by the New York Rangers in the 1994 NHL Entry Draft, the last pick in that draft. After playing 2 seasons with the Rangers, he was traded to the Philadelphia Flyers on August 20, 2001 along with Jan Hlavac, Pavel Brendl, and a 3rd-round pick for Eric Lindros. He has had the most success of anyone in this trade as he would play his next four NHL seasons for the Flyers. He signed a four-year contract with the Minnesota Wild on July 1, 2006.
He is a fast-skating defenseman who is often seen quarterbacking the power play and on the PK unit because of his speed and knowledge of the game.
