Playing career

edit

Johansson came through the youth ranks of Arvika HC. During the 2004–05 season, he played his first minutes in the Swedish second division HockeyAllsvenskan with Bofors IK and made his debut with Färjestad BK in the top-flight Swedish Hockey League (SHL) one year later. He spent eight years with the club, winning the Swedish championship three times (2006, 2009, 2011), interrupted by a stint with Hamilton Bulldogs of the American Hockey League in 2009-10[1] after signing with NHL's Montreal Canadiens who sent him to their AHL affiliate.[2]

Johannson signed with fellow SHL side Leksands IF for the 2013–14 season, followed by one season in Switzerland with NLA club Rapperswil-Jona.[3] He then returned to Färjestad BK in 2015.

In May 2016, he agreed to terms with HC Lada Togliatti of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL).[4]
