#CBJ coach Dean Evason said there's a chance Yegor Chinakhov might play Tuesday in Tampa. Chinakhov also said it's a possibility. He skated on the second forward line today in practice with Jenner and Johnson. Van Riemsdyk went back to Kuraly's line etc.

Chinakhov out there practicing with #CBJ today and was just playing the right wall on the 2nd PP during special teams work.

They appear to be having some cannon difficulty down there. It didn't fire after Voronkov's PPG to make it 2-1, but rebounded strong on Olivier's tally 32 seconds later to make it 3-1 late in the second. #CBJ #LGRW

Chatted with Twenty One Pilots drummer Josh Dun about playing tonight's NHL Stadium Series first intermission concert, the band's Columbus roots and how their early 'dream' was to play Newport Music Hall. Ohio Stadium is just a tad bigger. Great talk. #CBJ #LGRW www.dispatch.com/story/entert...

#CBJ are here at Ohio Stadium for their 4:30 p.m. practice. Werenski brought a football, so a group of Jackets played catch on the field with it, including Marchenko. He's a lefty. He's no Boomer Esiason, but ... not a bad arm on the Russian right wing.

#CBJ won't have Cole Sillinger (upper body) on Saturday against #LGRW at Ohio Stadium. That sucks for him and them, but the bright side is Boone Jenner handles C of the second line. www.dispatch.com/story/sports...

The Cannon made its way up Cannon Dr., (I know, right?) and into Ohio Stadium, where they’re currently putting it through tests/rehearsal. #CBJ vs #LGRW here tomorrow for the NHL Stadium Series matchup.

Seven of the top eight teams in the Eastern Conference are in the green with a + goal differential. The #CBJ are one of them at +7 after a 5-2 win in Detroit. #LGRW at -13 are the only top 8 team in the red, which is fitting and misleading. The Wings are solidly in the green with McLellan coaching.

That does it, 5-2 victory for the #CBJ there in Detroit. Blue Jackets goals: Van Riemsdyk (2), Kuraly, Johnson and Marchenko Tarasov gets the win in net with 29 saves. Jackets tie the Wings at 66 points in the EC standing, still holding the 2nd wild card behind Detroit due to tiebreaker.

Holy moly, Kirill Marchenko. Super Marchy ... scores a superman empty-netter to seal this thing on the road. That's his 24th goal of the season. It's 5-2 on his new career-high setting goal. #CBJ

Marchenko's tenacity in puck battles this season is remarkable. It's a huge reason he and his line have had so much success this season. No goals for the #CBJ top line tonight, but not for lack of effort or scoring chances. They've been all over it. #CBJ

Kuraly scored the winner against #Blackhawks in an outdoor game at Notre Dame for the Bruins ... and has a habit of scoring goals on big stages. Wouldn't surprise me in the least if he scores a big one Saturday at Ohio Stadium. #CBJ

Indeed, the Kuraly "goal" is called off for a distinct kicking motion. Worth a shot, right? #CBJ

Kuraly with another greasy goal, but we'll see if this one withstands the review. He kicked this one into the net, imo. #CBJ

Per @naturalstattrick.com through two periods there in Detroit -> #CBJ with a 4-2 lead.

This seems ... off a bit, but @naturalstattrick.com has the #CBJ with a 20-1 edge in high-danger 5v5 chances over #LGRW through two periods. That's, uh ... a huge margin.

End of two here in Motown and it's 4-2 #CBJ over #LGRW on two goals by Van Riemsdyk plus tallies from Kuraly and Johnson in the second period. Detroit goals scored by DeBrincat and Compher (PPG)

Severson to the box for hooking Larkin, not a great penalty there late in the 2nd ... and it leads immediately to a #LGRW goal. It's 4-2 #CBJ

4-1 another Van Riemsdyk tally, snap through the five-hole from the net-front off a perfect feed from Jenner, who has three assists. Second goal of the game for Van Riemsdyk, who now has 14 goals for the season. #CBJ

3-1 #CBJ ... Kent Johnson increases the Blue Jackets' lead with his 20th goal of the season.

Looks like a goal for Kuraly, but they waive it off immediately for a glove hand pass ... and they review it, which overturns the call on the ice. It's 2-1 #CBJ over #LGRW ... great individual effort there to glove Olivier's rebound to the ice and then tap it inside the right post.

Sillinger officially out, will not return for #CBJ tonight. Hope for his sake he'll be able to go in two days.

Broadcast showed the "hit" by Seider on Sillinger that apparently caused Sillinger's injury ... looked more like an inadvertent collision at the blue line that bowled the #CBJ center over. Just more terrible Blue Jackets injury misfortune, it seems.

1-1 ... Van Riemsdyk with his 13th of the season and second in as many games, another classic net-front tip of Christian's shot from the top of the slot. Still early 2nd period. #CBJ #LGRW

#LGRW strike first and it's 1-0 early second on a goal for DeBrincat off a great pass from Compher. #CBJ down one.

Sillinger doesn't return for the second period. Big loss for the #CBJ ... Jenner will move to center of the second line.

Exciting first period there in Detroit, which followed an exciting first game of the season series between the #CBJ and #LGRW Jan. 2 in Columbus. These teams are evenly matched, which is probably why they're two of five EC teams chasing the two East wild cards.

Sillinger left the game after two shifts, after taking a hit from Seider at 4:20 on the second one, then returned for two more shifts before leaving the game again with 6:18 left in the first period. Didn't return from that departure. #CBJ

Sillinger left the game again, according to Jody Shelley. We'll see if he comes back in the second or misses the remainder of the game. #CBJ

According to the official NHL play-by-play, Cole Sillinger took a hit from #LGRW D Moritz Seider at 4:20 of the first, finished that shift at 4:35 and went back to the room. He has since returned to the game for the #CBJ
