BLUE JACKETS TEAM NEWS CENTER

Mikhail Grigorenko - C

Columbus Blue Jackets

Mikhail Grigorenko remains committed to signing with the Columbus Blue Jackets, even after the NHL rejected his contract.

Added Apr 21 3:17 pm (EST)

Grigorenko and the Blue Jackets agreed to a one-year contract for the 2020-21 campaign on Monday, but the NHL rejected it, basically saying that the deal should have been filed on July 1. The Blue Jackets have since issued a statement announcing their intention to re-submit the contract at the appropriate time and Grigorenko is on board with that plan. “I’ve made my decision,” Grigorenko said. “I believe the contract is valid and it will be filed on July 1. I don’t think anything changes. There’s no way I’m going to talk to any other teams.” Grigorenko is returning to North America after scoring 19 goals and 41 points in 47 KHL contests this season.

A. Burakovsky - F

COL

Andre Burakovsky (upper body) won't play on Thursday night against the Los Angeles Kings.

Burakovsky participated in the optional morning skate but was not expected to dress tonight. Coach Jared Bednar called this morning's skate a "step in the right direction", and we'd expect him to return some time soon. Consider Burakovsky day-to-day.

S. Wedgewood - G

NJ

Scott Wedgewood allowed four goals on 35 shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the New York Islanders.

Wedgewood wasn't expected to see much action this year because the Devils had Corey Crawford and Mackenzie Blackwood at their disposal, but Crawford retired and Blackwood is on the NHL's Covid-19 protocol list. The Devils fell behind early in the the first period and they were never able to recover. Wedgewood wasn't the reason New Jersey lost this game tonight, but he isn't capable of playing at the level Blackwood can play at in goal. He'll likely continue to get some run as the starting goaltender under Blackwood is ready to come back. Wedgewood isn't an ideal fantasy option in any format.

S. Varlamov - G

NYI

Semyon Varlamov stopped 30 of 31 shots in Thursday's 4-1 win over the New Jersey Devils.

Varlamov blanked the Devils in the first and third periods, but he gave up a bit of a stinker to Devils forward Nathan Bastian in the second frame. That goal ended the Russian netminder's shutout streak 142:10 to start the season. The 32-year-old has a perfect 3-0-0 record to start the 2021 campaign and he should continue to have success this year. Varlamov will be a strong fantasy option going forward because his team plays solid defense in front of him on a nightly basis.

N. Bastian - F

NJ

Nathan Bastian found the back of the net in Thursday’s 4-1 loss to the New York Islanders.

Bastian’s goal at the 2:10 mark of the second period cut the Devils’ deficit to 2-1 at the time. The goal should have never gone into the net, as his soft writster got through Islanders goaltender Semyon Varlamov, but hey, they all count. This was the 23-year-old forward’s first point of the season in four games. Ty Smith picked up the assist on the Devils’ only goal of the night. Bastian shouldn’t pop up on your fantasy radar.

M. Barzal - F

NYI

Mathew Barzal picked up a goal and two assists in Thursday’s 4-1 win over the New Jersey Devils.

Barzal used his speed to open scoring at the 4:43 mark of the first period and he also helped make it 2-0 late in the frame when he helped set up Jordan Eberle’s first goal. The Isles forward also picked up a helper on Eberle’s second marker of the night. The 23-year-old had just one point in his first three games of the season, but he’s now rolling at a point-per-game pace through four games. Barzal will continue to be a quality fantasy option for an Islander team that isn’t the flashiest in the offensive zone.
