Jack Johnson returns with goal, big minutes
Jack Johnson - D - Columbus Blue Jackets
March 6, 2013 - 9:55 AM ET

Jack Johnson (shoulder) was activated off injured reserve Tuesday and scored the game-tying goal midway through the second period.

Johnson missed the last four games with the ailment but came back to play 26:53 against the Oilers. His goal in the second period also stood up as game-tying score before the Jackets won 4-3 in a shootout. Johnson had been heating up before getting hurt, so owners are hoping this is a sign of him picking up where he left off.
