Zach Werenski Available Saturday
Columbus Blue Jackets defenseman Zach Werenski (illness) will return from a three-game absence on Saturday against the Utah Mammoth. The star blue-liner missed time due to a stomach bug. Werenski will rejoin the first defensive pairing, bumping Ivan Provorov down to the second. He will also play a key role on the first power-play unit. Before exiting the lineup late last month, Werenski set a new franchise record for the longest point streak by a defenseman, getting on the score sheet in nine consecutive games. He has finished scoreless only twice in his last 24 appearances, posting 65 points (20 goals, 45 assists) in 54 games across the season.
