Columbus Blue Jackets defenseman Jack Johnson filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and is selling off assets, beginning with his 1,800-square foot Los Angeles home.

Jack Johnson, the Columbus Blue Jackets defenseman who has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, has put his posh Los Angeles home on the market.

Johnson, who filed for bankruptcy in October while claiming his parents have squandered all of the more than $18 million he has earned during his nine years in the NHL as well as committing $15 million in future earnings, has put his 1,800-square foot home in Manhattan Beach up for sale, seeking $1.65 million, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Johnson played parts of six seasons with the Los Angeles Kings before he was traded to Columbus in February 2012.

Originally taken third overall by the Carolina Hurricanes in 2005, his rights were traded to the Kings in September 2006.

Johnson bought the house in 2007 from former Los Angeles Lakers forward Luke Walton for $1.235 million.

Johnson has a second home in Manhattan Beach, purchased for $1.5 million in 2011, and a 2,900-square foot home in Ann Arbor, Mich. Johnson played two seasons at Michigan before turning pro.

In 15 games this season, Johnson has seven assists and 10 penalty minutes.
