As the days pass, the likelihood of Ryan Johansen remaining unsigned when training camp, or even the regular season, opens continues to increase.With that seemingly becoming a distinct possibility, I'd be ignorant not to look at how the team stacks up without him.While he's undoubtedly the team's best forward, I think the Blue Jackets would be able to survive a holdout in the short-term should he remain unsigned come October.Here's how their forward lines could shake up without him:Scott Hartnell - Brandon Dubinsky - Cam AtkinsonBoone Jenner - Artem Anisimov - Nathan HortonNick Foligno - Alexander Wennberg - Matt CalvertJerry D'Amigo - Mark Letestu - Brian GibbonsMaybe I'm being overly optimistic, but I think Wennberg could handle himself at the NHL level should he need to step in right away. I predicted he'd establish himself as a regular by the end of the season, anyways, so Johansen's potential absence may just be a short cut to the inevitable.If Todd Richards went with that 4th line rather than using an enforcer like Jared Boll, I think they could contribute and help offset some of the offense lost without Johansen.I think the Blue Jackets need Johansen in the long run if they're going to accomplish anything this season, but if he misses a small portion of the season I believe Columbus will be able to survive without him.What do you think? Could the Blue Jackets live without Johansen in the short-term? What would your line combinations look like without him?
