INJURIES

Inks AHL deal Nylander signed a one-year contract with the AHL Toronto Marlies, Lance Hornby of The Toronto Sun reports.
Impact Nylander tallied 11 goals and 15 points in 23 games following a midseason trade to the Blue Jackets last season. The 26-year-old winger ultimately had to settle for an AHL contract as he'll look to work his way back to an NHL roster.
JULY 28 • ROTOWIRE
Won't receive qualifying offer Nylander is not expected to get a qualifying offer from Columbus on Sunday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Impact Nylander will be eligible for unrestricted free agency Monday. The decision is surprising because the 26-year-old forward was a great fit for the Blue Jackets in 2023-24. Nylander produced 11 goals and 15 points in 23 games after being acquired from Pittsburgh in February.
JUNE 30 • ROTOWIRE
Slated to play Nylander (lower body) is expected to be in the lineup Thursday versus the Panthers, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.
Impact Nylander took line rushes on the fourth line in warmups, while Trey Fix-Wolansky skated as an extra. The 26-year-old Nylander missed Tuesday's game versus the Lightning with the injury, but it appears to have been a short-term issue.
APRIL 11 • ROTOWIRE
Not playing Tuesday Nylander (undisclosed) won't play Tuesday against Tampa Bay, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.
Impact Nylander left the pregame warmups about halfway through and was a late scratch for Tuesday's contest. He will be replaced in the lineup by Carson Meyer.

Lights lamp twice in win Nylander registered two goals on three shots in Monday's 4-1 win over the Avalanche.
Impact Nylander reached the 10-goalm mark on the year, with his pair of tallies including the game-winner Monday. It was a tough stretch recently for Nylander as he had not produced a point over his last five games played. The 26-year-old winger has discovered his scoring touch again with the Blue Jackets, as he has 13 points in 17 games since being traded from Pittsburgh.

MARCH 31 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Ready to go Saturday Nylander (upper body) will return to the lineup Saturday against the Penguins, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.
Impact After missing Columbus' last two games, Nylander will return to action Saturday against his former team. The 26-year-old winger had gone scoreless in four games prior to the injury, though he's tallied eight goals and 11 points in 15 games with Columbus since he was acquired from the Penguins at the trade deadline. Nylander will likely return to a top-line role.

Unavailable versus Penguins Nylander (upper body) will not be available to play versus Pittsburgh on Thursday, Wes Crosby of NHL.com reports.
Impact Nylander was dealt from the Penguins five weeks ago, in exchange for Emil Benstrom and has made the most of his change of scenery. Nylander has eight goals and 11 points in 15 games with the Blue Jackets and is seeing almost three minutes more of ice time than he did in five scoreless games with the Penguins earlier in the season.
MARCH 28 • ROTOWIRE
Unavailable due to illness Nylander (illness) won't play Tuesday versus Arizona, Brian Hedger of The Columbus Dispatch reports.
Impact This is a pretty big loss for the Blue Jackets, as Nylander has played well since being traded to Columbus from Pittsburgh in late February, racking up eight goals and 11 points through 15 contests. James Malatesta is expected to draw into the lineup and make his NHL debut against the Coyotes due to Nylander's absence.

Two more goals, assist vs. Sharks Nylander scored a pair of goals and added an assist in Saturday's 4-2 win over San Jose.
Impact Nylander extended the Blue Jackets' lead to 2-0 in the opening minute of the second period, beating Magnus Chrona with a wrister off the rush, before adding an assist on Johnny Gaudreau's goal later in the frame. Nylander would add a third point, matching a season high, with an empty-netter in the third. The 26-year-old winger has found his scoring touch since joining Columbus at the trade deadline, tallying eight goals and 11 points in 10 games, earning a spot on the Jackets' top line with Gaudreau and Boone Jenner.

Goal surge continues Thursday Nylander scored his fifth goal of the season in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Oilers.
Impact The 26-year-old winger gave the Blue Jackets a 2-0 lead in the first period, benefitting from an aggressive forecheck by Cole Sillinger and snapping a shot past Calvin Pickard from the slot. Nylander was viewed as a throw-in to the Emil Bemstrom trade with Pittsburgh in February, but Columbus may have uncovered a gem -- William's younger brother has erupted for five goals and seven points over the last five games.
