Marchenko signed a three-year, $3.85 million AAV extension with the Blue Jackets on Sunday.

Marchenko has produced back-to-back 20-goal seasons and has established himself as a key member of Columbus' top six. The 24-year-old totaled 23 goals and 42 points while averaging 16:25 of ice time through 78 games during the 2023-24 campaign. If he maintains a role on the top line, he could see a production bump while playing alongside Sean Monahan and Johnny Gaudreau.
