At first I thought it was an accident, but after watching the vid no way that was any accident. It looks like a flying kick, you can see the guy jump up and kick his legs up like a flying donkey kick.
I would guess the intent was to kick Johnson in the chest, one leg got up high, and a "lucky" hit of skate blade to Johnson's neck. But def no accident. Manslaughter seems appropriate to me now.
