Blue Jackets put Klesla on IR (AP)
The Columbus Blue Jackets placed defenseman Rostislav Klesla on injured reserve on Wednesday because of an ankle injury. Klesla has missed the last two games and will likely miss at least one more with what coach Ken Hitchcock called a high ankle sprain he sustained in Friday's 6-1 win at Buffalo. A player on IR is ineligible to compete in games for at least a week. |
Lightning lose with 52 shots; Oilers win with 19 (AP)
The Tampa Bay Lightning rattled off a franchise-record worth of shots against the Florida Panthers and still couldn't skate off with a win. The Edmonton Oilers kept their total at a minimum, but managed to find the net again and again in a most-efficient victory at the expense of the Columbus Blue Jackets. |
Blue Jackets Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)
This time, Rostislav Klesla's injury looks to be much more serious.
Klesla suffered a high ankle sprain in a 6-1 win over Buffalo on Friday, and team officials have termed his injury "week-to-week" and say he's out until at least late November. The veteran was limping noticeably on Wednesday.
It's a big blow, because Klesla is one of the Blue Jackets' top four defensemen, not to mention one of their top penalty killers.
In his absence, the Blue Jackets have elevated Marc Methot to pair with Fedor Tyutin on the No. 2 pair. Oilers 7, Blue Jackets 2: Ugly turned to brutal quickly on Wednesday in Nationwide Arena. After the Blue Jackets scored to make it 4-2 midway through the third, Edmonton scored three goals in a span of 3 minutes, 3... |

Wild win in shootout, 3-2 over Blue Jackets (AP)
Maybe Marian Gaborik isn't Minnesota's most important free-agent-to-be. Niklas Backstrom's contract is up after the season, too, and the way he has been guarding the goal he'll be in line for big raise. Marek Zidlicky and Antti Miettinen scored in the shootout and Backstrom made two saves to lift the Wild past the Columbus Blue Jackets, 3-2 on Saturday night.

Leclaire makes 36 saves in Columbus' 6-1 win (AP)
Pascal Leclaire and R.J. Umberger made sure the Columbus Blue Jackets didn't cut any corners. Two days after coach Ken Hitchcock called his team out for a lackadaisical effort in a three-goal loss to Phoenix, the Blue Jackets had no such issues in their greatest offensive output of the season, a 6-1 rout of the Buffalo Sabres on Friday night.

Blue Jackets activate Leclaire (AP)
The Columbus Blue Jackets activated goaltender Pascal Leclaire off injured reserve after he missed seven games with an ankle injury. The club announced the move Wednesday. In his place, rookie Steve Mason came up from the minors and won all three games he started. Mason was named the NHL's No. 2 star for last week. |
Doan scores twice for Phoenix (AP)
Shane Doan had two goals and an assist and Ilya Bryzgalov made 31 saves in the Phoenix Coyotes' 5-2 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets on Wednesday night. Doan had his third two-goal game of the season to help the Coyotes to their third win in a row. Steve Reinprecht and Kevin Porter added goals for Phoenix, with Martin Hanzal contributing an empty-netter after Doan's try for a hat trick hit...

Mason helps Blue Jackets beat Flames (AP)
Rookie goaltender Steve Mason is getting more comfortable playing in the NHL. As a result, opposing teams aren't so comfortable playing the Columbus Blue Jackets. Mason made 22 saves to remain unbeaten in three career starts and the surging Blue Jackets beat the Calgary Flames 3-1 on Saturday night. The Blue Jackets have won their last three games -- beating Canadian franchises Edmonton, Montreal...

Mason stays perfect as Blue Jackets beat Montreal (AP)
The rookies were two of the coolest customers on the ice. Derick Brassard scored Columbus' second goal in the shootout and fellow rookie Steve Mason stayed perfect by stopping both shots he faced in the tiebreaker to lead the Blue Jackets to a 4-3 victory over the Montreal Canadiens on Friday night. Mason improved to 2-0 in his fledgling NHL career since being called up Nov.
