Johnston recorded the fifth-highest single season point total in Spitfires history behind Ernie Godden (153, 1980-81), Bill Bowler (135, 1994-95), Kelly Cain (133, 1987-88) and Blair Barnes (130, 1979-80), while his 46 goals were the most by a Spitfire since former Stars forward Steve Ott scored 50 in 2000-01.
The offseason will be a short one for Johnston, who is expected to attend the Stars' development camp in mid-July. The Toronto native says he already has his mind set on next season.
"The biggest thing is being able to get back into the gym to train and prepare for next year," he said. "It's ultimately not too long of an offseason. I'm already thinking about getting back into the gym and doing whatever I can to be prepared for next year."
