Cam Johnson

Cam Johnson (born July 11, 1994) is an American professional ice hockey goaltender for the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins of the American Hockey League (AHL). He was an All-American for North Dakota. He was named an All-American for the year but faltered in the conference semifinals. Fortunately, the team's record was good enough to earn the #3 overall seed and UND went on a run through the NCAA Tournament. While the offense averaged 5 goals a game, Johnson didn't allow more than 2 goals in any of the four matches. He helped the program cruise to one of the more dominant postseason performances, winning the 8th national title in team history. He remained with UND for two more seasons, serving as the primary starter. His numbers, however, were not as strong as they had been in the championship year. The Hawks finished 4th in the NCHC both years and only played one more game in the NCAA Tournament.

After graduating, Johnson signed with the New Jersey Devils and was assigned to their minor league affiliate. His performance with Binghamton was less than impressive and he was demoted to the ECHL before his first full season was over. Johnson joined the Florida Everblades for the following season and began to acclimate to the pro game. While he only ended up playing in 7 matches during the COVID-19 season in 2021, he resigned with the Columbus Blue Jackets for the 2021–22 season.

Having claimed the Kelly Cup in the ECHL with the Florida Everblades during the 2021–22 season, Johnson left the Blue Jackets as a free agent in the off-season. On July 20, 2022, Johnson was signed to a one-year AHL contract with the Charlotte Checkers, the affiliate to the Everblades.

Johnson and the Everblades won a second Kelly Cup in the 2022–23 season, and he become the first player in ECHL history to win back-to-back Kelly Cup Most Valuable Player awards. The following season, Johnson backstopped Florida to the first three-peat in ECHL history, with Florida winning their third consecutive Kelly Cup title.

On July 30, 2024, Johnson was signed to a one-year AHL contract with the Springfield Thunderbirds, the primary affiliate to the St. Louis Blues.

After capturing his fourth ECHL Championship with the Everblades and concluding his contract with the Thunderbirds, Johnson was signed as a free agent to a one-year AHL contract with the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins on July 24, 2026.
