Watch: Predators wait for Johansen to join celebration on crutches

The Nashville Predators weren't going to have their team picture taken without Ryan Johansen.

The club waited for the injured forward to join them on the ice for the celebratory photo following a series-clinching 6-3 victory over the Anaheim Ducks in Game 6 of the Western Conference Final on Monday night.

Johansen was ruled out for the rest of the playoffs Friday with a thigh injury that was eventually confirmed to be acute compartment syndrome.

He and fellow injured Predators forward Kevin Fiala helped fire up the crowd Monday night after watching Game 5 together from a local hospital.

Injured Predators captain Mike Fisher also joined the club for the photo Monday night, stepping on to the ice in a suit and tie.
