Tre Johnson hears a voice when he plays. It’s his own. The self-talk is negative. Johnson picks at himself, always wanting more.

At times, Johnson hears his voice differently. It echoes of his father’s.

The one defender Tre Johnson could never shake was his dad
Father’s tough love helped the Wizards rookie become a pro. Even as their relationship has evolved, dad’s lessons have lingered.

Playing in the NHL is a pretty charmed life. But being a 20-year-old rookie on a team that expects to win every night, while a dream come true, isn't always easy.

Wizards ended up winning that quarter 33-22. Trail 103-87 entering the final frame.
Brian Keefe is pissed. Barked at Tre Johnson after caling a timeout just 37 seconds into the second half — I think it's because Johnson was beat to an offensive rebound by Josh Okogie.
