I would give up a lot to get Johansen. I would lock him up long-term if I were Columbus, he's going to be a franchise player for them IMO and they've had a lot of trouble keeping talent. They'll have to overpay now to do it but I think it will be worth it in the long run. If they want a package of prospects and vets for him I'd love to see the Flames acquire him and lock him up long-term for $5-6M.
