Johnson will be between the pipes when the Sabres take the ice to face the Bruins, Bill Hoppe of NHL.com reports.

Analysis:

Johnson was destroyed in his previous outing against the Rangers, allowing five goals on 32 shots. Likely due to it being a back-to-back set, he'll get another shot in goal Thursday as he prepares to face a Bruins club that averaged 2.62 goals per game in January.
