It's not a big enough issue with Johnny for him to spend "most of the season" in the AHL. A month or two, tops. He backchecks well and is better than most at reading plays and picking off passes and turning the play up ice. It's not a huge issue but there's an adjustment period, regardless. He's too good to spend the entire season in the AHL. Not when he can make an impact on the big team.
