It should come as no surprise that Chad Johnson’s recent performances for the Calgary Flames have made him the talk of the National Hockey League.
Of course, that could change quickly. These are the way things go in professional sports and particularly with goaltending in the NHL, a fickle position that can be the reason teams win Stanley Cups or struggle horribly.
Johnson gets it. He also understands the role of modern-day media and its constant need to find stories, content, and interesting anecdotes.
And the only way to handle the chatter — good or bad — is to ignore it.
