Last year, David Johnson wanted to become just the third running back in NFL history to rush for 1,000 yards and put up 1,000 receiving yards in the same season. Fantasy owners bought that stock and made him either the first or second player selected in most season-long drafts. Johnson was immediately injured and missed the rest of the season. So, Johnson is now talking about this year and his goals are the same. However, his coaching staff is not and neither are his quarterbacks.
.
In this podcast, Todd Wright talks about the pros and cons and early projections for Johnson this year. (Oh, and Todd actually forgets his own first name in this podcast when he failed to remember Todd Gurley in the conversation about the top three running backs. Forgive Todd, he’s been pulling double duty on this podcast AND of course on his Lightning Playoff Podcast. It’s clearly is taking a mental toll. He’ll be fine, just insert Todd Gurley’s name where necessary in this fantasy football podcast to complete the thought.)

The Lightning power play is not automatic, but what they are currently doing is reaching historic levels in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. While the explosion of Steven Stamkos the last five games is fantastic, these power play goals need one key ingredient on a regular basis. And that’s where Lars Eller comes into this conversation.
.
In this edition of the podcast, Todd Wright discusses Eller’s role in the series and also how Ondrej Palat’s pass on the game-winning goal was almost ironic, because it seems like that is all Palat is trying to do since Jon Cooper assigned him to skate with the top line to start Game Three.
