Kevin Stenlund Makes His Season Debut With Patrik Laine Out
Columbus Blue Jackets forward Kevin Stenlund will get his first taste of action this season in Saturday's matchup against Colorado. He's replacing Patrik Laine (oblique strain) in the lineup and could be set to feature a lot more now, with the Finnish winger ruled out for at least four weeks. However, Stenlund doesn't carry a lot of fantasy value. He's posted only 20 points in 68 career games and will skate on the third line. Rookie Yegor Chinakhov will benefit the most from Laine's absence. He joins the first line on Saturday and can also look forward to some power-play time on the second unit.
