He'll dangle the puck out like a carrot on a stick and just wait for a few moments. When the defender moves Johhny takes off and leaves the defender out of position. Right now the opposition is afraid of Johhny not the reverse.
Even when he does get hit he anticipates and deflects the impact into angular momentum. The odds of Johnny getting hurt is about as low as anyone in the league, hitting him is like catching a snake that can wriggle out of any bad situation.
That one hit bad hit he took in camp years back was a blatant cheap shot other than that he's given out just as many hits as he takes. Johhny hit Byfuglien harder than anyone I've ever seen, think about that. Good luck catching Johhny, it's nearly impossible. He can turn on a dime and he always has his head up.

Please tell me this isn't the hit you're referring to?
