Yegor Chinakhov Returns For Columbus
2 years agoColumbus Blue Jackets winger Yegor Chinakhov (upper body) will be back in action Friday after missing Wednesday's defeat to Montreal. The 21-year-old will hope to maintain his good scoring form against the Islanders, having picked up four points in his past five appearances. Chinakhov boasts 10 points overall for the season in 18 games. He'll go on the fourth line, but we should also see Chinakhov skate with the second power-play unit. The young Russian will be eager to impress and earn himself a spot among the top six. Columbus's attack has been badly hit by injuries and is currently without Jakub Voracek (upper body) and Patrik Laine (ankle).
