The Detroit<\/a> Red Wings go two-deep in defensemen named Johansson. That\u2019s not a secret.<\/p>\n

Albert Johansson<\/a> is already a Red Wings regular. Anton Johansson<\/a>, a Red Wings hopeful, will be playing in Sweden this season with Leksand of the SHL. He\u2019s returning there on loan after signing an entry-level contract with Detroit \u2013 just as Albert Johansson did previously with Farjestad.<\/p>\n

Both Johanssons saw their first North American pro action with the AHL Grand Rapids Griffins<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Confusing the Johanssons is not uncommon. It happened again earlier this week when a writer mixed up facts about the two players.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re not going to throw anyone under the bus because, full disclosure, Detroit Hockey Now has made the same mistake. We once ran a photo of Anton with a story on Albert. Our eagle-eyed readers were quick to point out the error, and we corrected our mistake.<\/p>\n

All of this confusion got us to thinking, though. How well do Red Wings fans know their Johanssons? Can you tell Albert from Anton?<\/p>\n
