Police had not yet said who was arrested, but it's hard to imagine it would be anyone other than Matt Petgrave, whose skate cut Johnson's neck. Manslaughter is a charge that implies there was no intent, but that law enforcement believe there was some kind of negligence involved.
Johnson had been playing for the Nottingham Panthers at the time of his death. He did play a handful of games for the NHL's Pittsburgh Penguins before heading to the U.K. to play.
