Cole Sillinger - Removed from IR Sillinger (shoulder), as expected, was activated off injured reserve, per the NHL media site, ahead of Friday's clash with Vancouver.
Impact Sillinger was medically cleared Wednesday but the team waited until closer to Friday's contest to officially remove him from IR. With the 21-year-old forward back in action, he figures to slot into a third-line role in addition to linking up with the No. 2 power-play unit. In his 54 appearances this year, the Columbus native has registered nine goals and 20 assists, including three points with the man advantage.

Cole Sillinger - Could return Friday Sillinger (shoulder) has been medically cleared and could return to action against the Canucks on Friday, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports Wednesday.
Impact Sillinger suffered a shoulder injury at the end of February and has been on injured reserve since March 4. However, head coach Dean Evason said Wednesday that Sillinger will be an option against the Canucks on Friday, signaling that the Blue Jackets will activate him from injured reserve ahead of the matchup, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports. Sillinger has made 54 appearances for Columbus this year, logging nine goals, 20 assists, 62 hits and 35 PIM while averaging 17:18 of ice time.

Impact At the very least, it seems safe to assume Christiansen is close to returning. He has a goal, eight points, 47 hits and 64 blocks in 65 appearances in 2024-25. Christiansen has missed Columbus' past five games due to the injury. If he returns Friday, it will likely be as part of the third pairing.

Luca Pinelli - Makes jump to AHL The Blue Jackets assigned Pinelli from OHL Ottawa to AHL Cleveland on Tuesday.
Impact Pinelli was selected by Columbus in the fourth round (No. 114 overall) of the 2023 NHL Entry Draft. The 19-year-old center amassed 37 goals and 71 points across 52 OHL appearances in 2024-25. Pinelli is an undersized forward, so he'll have to make a name for himself at the AHL level before he's ready to attempt to make the jump to the NHL.

Dante Fabbro - Snags helper Monday Fabbro posted an assist and went plus-3 in Monday's 4-3 shootout win over the Islanders.
Impact Fabbro's had it a bit rough since the 4 Nations Face-Off break. He has four points and a plus-4 rating over 14 appearances in that span. The 26-year-old remains in a top-pairing role, but the Blue Jackets' offense has gotten inconsistent in crunch time as they try to stay in the playoff race. Fabbro is up to 17 points, 67 shots on net, 124 blocked shots, 59 hits, 34 PIM and a plus-15 rating over 57 appearances between Columbus and Nashville this season.

Boone Jenner - Nets shortie Monday Jenner scored a shorthanded goal on three shots, added two hits and went plus-2 in Monday's 4-3 shootout win over the Islanders.
Impact Jenner has scored in each of his last two games, so it looks like he's got his timing back after a lengthy absence due to a shoulder injury. The 31-year-old was playing at center, but he moved to the wing Monday, while Sean Monahan and Adam Fantilli centered the Blue Jackets' first two lines. Jenner has contributed 11 points, 35 shots on net and 28 hits over 14 appearances, so he could give fantasy managers a boost with offense and physicality.

Adam Fantilli - Pots goal in shootout win Fantilli scored a goal on four shots and added four hits in Monday's 4-3 shootout win over the Islanders.
Impact Fantilli snapped a five-game point drought with his second-period goal to get the Blue Jackets on the board. The 20-year-old was moved down to the second line to accommodate the return of Sean Monahan on the top line. Fantilli found some success with a larger role for most of Monahan's absence, but this was a line change that was likely overdue. Fantilli is now at 22 goals, 43 points, 160 shots on net, 100 hits, 51 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating through 70 appearances this season.

Kirill Marchenko - Forces overtime Monday Marchenko scored a goal on five shots and blocked two shots in Monday's 4-3 shootout win over the Islanders.
Impact Marchenko tallied at 12:56 of the third period to send the game to overtime. The goal ended a five-game slump for the 24-year-old winger, who should greatly benefit from the return of Sean Monahan (wrist) from a long-term absence. The two were reunited on the top line, which was a combination that led to success early in the campaign. Marchenko is now at 26 goals, 63 points, 178 shots on net and a plus-28 rating through 67 appearances.

Sean Monahan - Two helpers in return Monahan collected two assists, one shorthanded, in Monday's 43 shootout win over the Islanders.
Impact Seeing his first game action since Jan. 7 after recovering from a wrist issue, Monahan made an immediate impact for the Blue Jackets as they try to stay in the playoff chase. The 30-year-old slotted right back in on the first power-play unit, and he could be poised for a productive finish to the regular season after delivering 14 goals and 43 points in his 42 appearances so far.

Elvis Merzlikins - Hangs on for shootout win Monday Merzlikins stopped 30 shots in regulation and overtime and all three shootout attempts he faced in Monday's 4-3 win over the Islanders.
Impact New York took a 2-0 lead into the first intermission, but Merzlikins kept his focus and gave Columbus a chance to rally. It was the 30-year-old netminder's first win since March 1, snapping an 0-5-1 stretch in which Merzlikins had posted a 3.55 GAA and .891 save percentage.
