Johansen retires after 13-season NHL career, highlighted by 2017 Predators run
Ryan Johansen announced his retirement after a 13-season NHL career highlighted by an All-Star year with Columbus and a central role in Nashville’s 2017 run to the Cup Final. Drafted fourth overall in 2010, he peaked with 71 points in Columbus before a trade to Nashville in 2016 and a lengthy eight-year contract that later declined in production amid injuries, including a hip issue that helped end his career. He also had stints with Colorado and Philadelphia, and finished with just over 900 games and 578 points, with 362 points for Nashville ranking sixth in franchise history.
