Damon Severson - Page 2 - NHL News & Rumors

Two helpers in OT win Severson notched two assists in Friday's 6-5 overtime win over the Maple Leafs.

Impact His breakout pass to catch Toronto on a bad line change led to a Brendan Gaunce tally in the second period, and Severson then set up Johnny Gaudreau for the OT winner. The points were the first for Severson in three games since returning from an oblique injury, but even with Zach Werenski (ankle) now on IR, he didn't see any meaningful power-play time Friday as Ivan Provorov handled duties on the first unit instead. Without ice time on the man advantage, Severson's fantasy value is limited.

Returns to action Saturday Severson (oblique) will be back in the lineup Saturday versus Toronto, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.

Impact Severson missed 15 games with the injury. He will replace Jake Bean in the lineup and is expected to see second unit power-play time. Severson had two goals and three points in his last three games before getting hurt, giving him three goals and five assists in 19 games this season.

Set to play before break Severson (oblique) is expected to play in one of the Jackets' next two matches, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports Wednesday.

Impact Severson evidently won't have to wait until after the Christmas break, returning to action against either the Capitals or Maple Leafs on Thursday or Saturday, respectively. Through 19 games this season, the blueliner has registered three goals and five assists, including one power-play point. Despite the missed time, Severson should still be capable of reaching the 30-point threshold for the third straight season.

Placed on injured reserve Severson (oblique) was put on injured reserve Thursday.

Impact Severson is expected to miss another five weeks of action after he was injured Nov. 19 versus the Flyers. Severson has three goals, five assists, 21 shots on goal and 35 blocked shots in 19 games this season. A return in early January is likely for the 29-year-old blueliner.

Set to miss about six weeks Severson is expected to be out of action for approximately six weeks due to an oblique injury.

Impact Severson was injured in Sunday's 5-2 loss to Philadelphia. He has produced three goals, five assists, 21 shots on net and 35 blocked shots in 19 appearances this season. Adam Boqvist could receive an expanded role during Severson's absence.

Exits Sunday's contest Severson (upper body) will not return to Sunday's game against Philadelphia.

Impact Severson posted a minus-1 rating and one hit in 9:57 of ice time before leaving the game. The 29-year-old has been a solid contributor on the blue line this season, tallying three goals, eight points, 35 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating through 19 games. An update on his status should be available before Wednesday's tilt with Chicago.

Scores twice against Yotes Severson scored two goals on three shots in Thursday's 3-2 loss to Arizona.

Impact Severson never had a two-goal performance in 81 games with the Devils last season, scoring seven goals on the year. Given his limited goalscoring, fantasy players should probably be expecting extended slumps for Severson like the seven-game stretch he just ended with Thursday's performance.

Scores first goal of season Severson scored his first goal of the season in Monday's 5-3 road loss against the Stars.

Impact Severson scored on his only shot attempt of the game, helped out by Adam Fantilli and Zach Werenski in the first period, giving Columbus a 2-1 lead at the time. He also finished with four blocked shots in his 21:46 of ice time. He led all Columbus defensemen with 2:09 of time on the power play, too. That being said, he still has rather minimal fantasy appeal, with Werenski outranking Severson on the Blue Jackets' overall depth chart.

First points of season Severson put up two assists in a 5-4 overtime win over the Wild on Saturday.

Impact His recent benching seems to have had its desired outcome. The points are Severson's first on the season. Two seasons ago, Severson put up 46 points. He might not be that kind of scorer in Columbus, but he should be better than the 33 points he put up last season.

Benched in Monday's loss Severson didn't see a shift in the third period of Monday's 4-0 loss to the Red Wings, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports.

Impact The former Devil wound up seeing only 11:57 of ice time after topping 21 minutes in each of his first two games of the season. Severson finished the contest with a minus-2 rating, and no points, hits or blocked shots, but he was far from alone in having a bad night. Coach Pascal Vincent is still trying to find a lineup combination that provides a consistent effort, but Severson's benching is likely only temporary given Columbus' other blue line options, especially with Zach Werenski (quadriceps) unavailable.

Two helpers Monday Severson collected two assists in Monday's 5-3 preseason win over the Blues.

Impact Picked up from the Devils in the offseason to bolster the Blue Jackets' blue line, Severson is in line for major minutes in Columbus, although he'll be behind the likes of Zach Werenski and Adam Boqvist for power-play time. Neither one was in the lineup Monday however, allowing Severson to flash the skills that led to 11 goals and 46 points in 80 games two seasons ago. Expect the 29-year-old to deliver something more like the seven goals and 33 points in 81 games that he produced in 2022-23 during his first campaign with the Jackets.

Dealt to Columbus Severson signed an eight-year, $50-million contract and was traded to Columbus for a third-round pick Friday, TSN's Chris Johnston reports.

Impact The only way Severson was getting an eighth year on his contract was if the Devils signed him. The defenseman is the second blueliner in the last three days to be traded to the Blue Jackets as Ivan Provorov was dealt Tuesday. Severson had seven goals and 26 assists in 81 regular-season games with New Jersey in 2022-23.
