``Obviously, it was kind of disappointing that Mo' had to go,'' Johnson said. ``He was a great partner for me. I really learned a lot from him. I really admired his patience with the puck. He was always calm and never panicked. I think that was able to rub off a little bit on me when I played with him. Hopefully I can carry some of Modry with me the rest of my career.
``Hopefully he can make the playoffs now and win, and I’ll be cheering for him.''
