Sujet: Johnson Sucks
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Yojimbo</b></div><div>Johnson is 3.99% of the cap. His hit doesn't hurt nearly as much as people make out. But then, most people don't understand $.

Crosby is the one that you need to convince to trade him, otherwise he will be a Penguin for 3 more years.

Accept it, you'll be happier for it.</div></div>

At what percentage does the hit hurt the team? 5%? In that case only Crosby, Malkin, Letang, Guentzel, Zucker &amp; Hornqvist have hits that hurt. Now one can make an argument that one or two of those players should be moved, but the NTCs complicate that matter for 5 of them. The only one who isn't limited is Guentzel and I can't imagine finding a deal that brings in more value than he does right now.

When 7 or 8 players on the team are making 4%-5% I think its fair to recognize the negative value that some of them contribute regardless of the perceived significance of their cap hit. Is Johnson the only issue? Absolutely not, but he's one of the biggest drags on the roster...for the next 3 years.
