Blue Jackets Announce A Slew Of Roster Moves

The Columbus Blue Jackets have announced some roster moves today. 

IR Moves

  • Adam Boqvist (retroactive to December 5); Expected to miss four weeks with a shoulder strain suffered vs. Los Angeles. Boqvist was seemingly being showcased for a future trade, so this does not help that cause. 
  • Elvis Merzlikins (retroactive to December 5); Expected to miss a week with an illness. 
  • Cole Sillinger (retroactive to November 26); Day-to-Day with an upper-body injury suffered vs. Montreal.

Columbus has also recalled the following players from Cleveland: 

  • Emil Bemstrom. He had 14 points in 8 games with Cleveland.
  • Nick Blankenburg has been called up on emergency recall. He has 11 points in 18 games.
  • Jet Greaves has also been called up on an emergency recall. Greaves has a 9-3-0 record with a 3.09 GAA and .899 SV% in 12 games.

Daniil Tarasov’s Long-Term Injured Reserve (LTI) conditioning assignment with the Monsters has been changed to a regular conditioning assignment.
