Wild’s Marcus Johansson reaches 1,000 career games while enjoying resurgent season

“House is full,” Johansson said. “I’m gonna go home and have a beer and enjoy it.”
Johansson’s assist Sunday made him only the second player in NHL history to have an active point streak of at least nine games through his 1,000th game.
The other? Bobby Hull in 1972.
But it’s the Wild succeeding alongside him that has Johansson relishing his individual climb even more.
“It’s fun, obviously, but what makes it better is winning,” he said. “That’s always No. 1. You can enjoy it a little bit more, and everyone’s happy and smiling. So, that’s the main thing.
“That’s what it’s all about.”
