They look great when they work, but most of the time they don't, become predictable, and kill plays and the spirit of your team.

I don't think it's a concern... Patrick Kane pulls it off from time to time but that doesn't mean he tries it every time. In fact, he only seems to do it when it works. That means he has a good read on when it's going to work.
Hopefully Johnny is the same. So far, I haven't seen him try to pull off some fancy move that didn't work. He seems to think the game at a ridiculously high pace that he makes other players trying to defend against him look silly.
