Good to go Bjorkstrand (illness) has been cleared to play ahead of Thursday's matchup with Tampa Bay, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.

Impact Bjorkstrand missed Wednesday's practice with an illness not related to COVID-19, but whatever he was dealing with was evidently minor. He'll slot into his usual spots on Columbus' second line and second power-play unit against the Lightning.

Under the weather Bjorkstrand missed Wednesday's practice with a non-COVID illness.

Impact Bjorkstrand should be considered questionable for Thursday's game versus Tampa Bay. If Bjorkstrand's unable to go, Riley Nash or Mikhail Grigorenko will likely draw into the lineup against the Lightning.

He reached the 30-point mark for the fourth straight year, and he's got enough time left to challenge his career high of 40 points, set in 82 outings during the 2017-18 campaign.
