Nick Blankenburg News
Columbus Blue Jackets defensemen Adam Boqvist (upper body) and Nick Blankenburg (upper body) will return to the lineup for Friday's clash with Toronto. The latter has sat out three games, while Boqvist was unavailable for two contests prior to the All-Star break. The two will link up on the third defensive pairing and will also share power-play time, with Boqvist set to join the top unit. Boqvist has skated in only 19 games this season and has been pretty productive in limited playing time with 10 points. Blankenburg sits on seven points through 15 appearances.
Columbus Blue Jackets defenseman Nick Blankenburg (upper-body) is still day-to-day and could miss a third consecutive game Tuesday versus the Capitals. The 24-year-old rookie hasn't been able to catch a break with injuries all season long and has appeared in only 15 games. He's done pretty well when healthy, recording three goals and seven points with 24 shots, 25 hits and 25 blocks. If he can't make it back Tuesday, Blankenburg will have a whole week and a half to recover, with the Blue Jackets not scheduled to play again until Feb. 10.
Columbus Blue Jackets defenseman Nick Blankenburg will sit out Friday's action against the Canucks with an upper-body injury. He is considered day-to-day with the injury, but Blankenburg could miss several games, with the Blue Jackets also playing on Saturday. Injuries have limited the 24-year-old to just 15 appearances this season. Blankenburg has totaled seven points, 24 shots, 25 hits and 25 blocks in the limited action. Gavin Bayreuther will enter the lineup in his absence, making his first appearance since Jan. 12. He has only a marginal role on the team and should remain on the waiver wire in fantasy hockey.
Columbus Blue Jackets defenseman Nick Blankenburg (ankle) has come off Injured Reserve and is eligible to make his comeback Thursday against Carolina. He hasn't played since Nov. 10 when he fractured his ankle in a game against Philadelphia. The 24-year-old had started the campaign in fine form, posting three points in seven games with 12 hits and 13 blocks. The Columbus backline has taken a number of injury hits, meaning Blankenburg could end up playing a very big role if he's back in the lineup.
