Columbus Blue Jackets winger Yegor Chinakhov suffered an upper-body injury during his first shift in Monday's 2-1 loss to Dallas. He finished the game with only 0:37 of ice time. Head coach Brad Larsen has said that the team will know more about Chinakhov's injury on Tuesday. It's the latest blow for Columbus on a long list of injuries. All the absentees had elevated Chinakhov to a top-six role, but he could now face some time off himself. The 21-year-old has posted four goals and nine assists in 30 outings this season. Kirill Marchenko could be the next man up if Chinakhov exits the lineup. He has already been getting power-play time and top-six minutes will give Marchenko's fantasy stock a further boost, although he hasn't really done anything yet to warrant a pickup in any league.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
