The 24-year-old Johansen had three goals and 10 assists in his 14 games in the playoffs.

Nashville will be without two of its key top six forwards for the remainder of its playoffs. The Predators had already lost Kevin Fiala in the postseason to a fractured left femur.

The Predators and Ducks are tied at 2-2 in the Western Conference Finals. Game 5 of the series is set for Saturday in Anaheim.
