Top Cole Sillinger News

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Won't play Wednesday

    Sillinger (upper body) won't play Wednesday versus Montreal, per Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site.

    Sillinger sat out two straight practices before being ruled out for Wednesday's game. He has accounted for three goals, 12 points, 48 shots on net, 13 blocked shots and 34 hits through 20 appearances this season. Sillinger will be replaced in Wednesday's lineup by James van Riemsdyk.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Provides pair of assists

    Sillinger logged two assists and two blocked shots in Thursday's 7-6 overtime win over the Lightning.

    Sillinger set up Yegor Chinakhov on a second-period tally and also fed Zach Werenski for the game-winning goal 1:26 into overtime. While it's a young forward group, the Blue Jackets could roll three scoring lines now that Kent Johnson is healthy again. As such, there's no reason to worry about Sillinger's third-line placement from Thursday -- he led all Columbus forwards with 17:55 of ice time in this contest. The 21-year-old center has four points over his last four games and is up to three goals, nine assists, 41 shots on net, 33 hits and a minus-5 rating over 19 appearances for the season.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Snaps drought with empty-netter

    Sillinger scored an empty-net goal in Friday's 6-2 win over the Penguins.

    Sillinger closed out the scoring with 4:28 left in the third period. He went pointless during the Blue Jackets' recent six-game losing streak. Sillinger has just nine points (three goals, six assists) this season, so his production hasn't been enough to make him worthy of rostering in most formats.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Three-point effort against Oilers

    Sillinger delivered a goal and two assists in Monday's 6-1 win over Edmonton.

    It was the first multi-point performance of the season for the 21-year-old. Sillinger has moved into a prominent role for Columbus, skating on the second line with Adam Fantilli at even strength while also working on the top power-play unit, and the assignment is beginning to lead to production. Sillinger was the 12th overall pick in the 2021 Draft, and he may be coming into his own.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Receives top-line look

    Sillinger posted an assist, three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Maple Leafs.

    Sillinger started the year on the third line, but head coach Dean Evason's lineup shuffle saw Sillinger take over on the top line while Yegor Chinakhov moved down to the second line. Sillinger was able to draw his assist on Kirill Marchenko's third-period tally. Through six outings, Sillinger has a goal, three helpers, 14 shots on net, eight hits and six PIM. His fantasy value receives an instant boost if he can stay in his new role, as the 21-year-old has the scoring chops to handle increased responsibilities.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Snaps home shortie Tuesday

    Sillinger scored a shorthanded goal in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Panthers

    The 21-year-old opened the scoring just 41 seconds into the second period, taking a long pass from Kent Johnson and then going top shelf on Sergei Bobrovsky. Sillinger has a goal and two points in three games to begin the season, and with the Blue Jackets having to lean heavily on their young core, he could reach the 20-goal and 40-point plateaus for the first time in 2024-25.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Pots third tally of preseason

    Sillinger scored the Blue Jackets' only goal in Thursday's 3-1 preseason loss to the Penguins.

    The 12th overall pick in the 2021 Draft beat Tristan Jarry in the first period, Sillinger's third goal of the preseason, but the Columbus offense went cold after that. He's expected to begin the season as the Jackets' No. 3 center behind Sean Monahan and Adam Fantilli, but after producing a career-high 32 points (13 goals, 19 assists) in 77 contests in 2023-24, Sillinger's overall game could continue to grow under new head coach Dean Evason.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Grabs two-year deal

    Sillinger agreed to terms on a two-year, $4.5 million contract with Columbus on Wednesday.

    Sillinger bounced back from a disappointing sophomore campaign, having recorded just 11 points in 64 games in 2022-23, with a 32-point 2023-24 season that included a career-best 19 helpers. The 21-year-old Columbus native is poised to remain in a middle-six role heading into the upcoming year and should be capable of continuing to put up 30-plus points in addition to 100-plus hits.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Snaps nine-game point drought

    Sillinger scored a goal and added an assist Thursday in a 3-2 loss to Pittsburgh.

    It was a goal-scorer's goal. Sillinger dropped to a knee for a one-timer on a 3-on-1 rush in the second period that pushed the score to 2-1 in favor of Columbus. The points Thursday snapped a nine-game point drought and a 12-game goal slump for Sillinger. He isn't a consistent scorer yet, but we all need to remember Sillinger's still just 20 years old.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Nets goal in Saturday's win

    Sillinger scored a goal on four shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

    Sillinger tallied midway through the second period to put the Blue Jackets ahead 4-1. The 20-year-old center has scored in three straight games, following a span of 12 contests in which he had a total of two assists. For the season, he's at 23 points, 104 shots on net, 88 hits, 34 PIM and a minus-2 rating through 55 outings. Sillinger has been playing on the third line lately, though he could get into the top six if he keeps scoring.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Scores team's lone goal in loss

    Sillinger scored a goal on four shots, blocked three shots and added three hits in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Rangers.

    Sillinger gave Columbus some hope when he scored on a rebound after Igor Shesterkin gave the puck away behind the Rangers' net in the third period, but the Blue Jackets were unable to solve Shesterkin the rest of the night. The goal was Sillinger's ninth, and the 20-year-old forward is up to 21 points through 53 games, putting him on pace to finish right around his rookie season total of 31 points from 2021-22. However, he's put up only two points since Jan. 25.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Picks up helper in win

    Sillinger recorded an assist and blocked two shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Flames.

    Sillinger led the Blue Jackets' forwards with 18:52 of ice time in this contest. The 20-year-old center helped out on a Yegor Chinakhov tally in the first period. Sillinger has five points over nine outings in January, providing solid offense but not enough to match his current top-line role. He's at 19 points, 83 shots on net, 47 hits, 46 blocked shots, 28 PIM and an even plus-minus rating through 42 appearances this season.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Scores goal in loss to Devils

    Sillinger provided a goal in a 4-1 loss to New Jersey on Friday.

    Sillinger put Columbus ahead 1-0 just 4:21 into the contest, but the Blue Jackets were unable to build off that lead. The 20-year-old forward snapped his three-game scoring drought. Sillinger has eight goals and 18 points in 40 outings in 2023-24. Those aren't great numbers, but the No. 12 overall pick from the 2021 NHL Draft does still have significant untapped upside, so he shouldn't be dismissed.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Second career hat trick not enough

    Sillinger scored three goals, one on the power play, in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Wild.

    The 20-year-old's second career hat trick involved a goal in every period, each one giving the Blue Jackets a lead that they coughed up before the frame was over. Sillinger has caught fire, scoring six goals and eight points over the last nine games, and the 12th overall pick in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft seems to be putting last season's woeful sophomore slump firmly behind him.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Two-point effort Tuesday

    Sillinger scored a goal and added an assist in Tuesday's 9-4 rout of the Sabres.

    Both points came in the third period as the Blue Jackets wrapped up the massive victory. Sillinger also added a team-high five shots on net, a blocked shot, a hit and a plus-2 rating to his ledger while winning eight of his 16 faceoffs, one of the more well-rounded performances of the season for the 20-year-old. He's still trying to find some consistency on offense -- Sillinger had only one assist in his prior seven games, a stretch broken up by a five-game absence due to an upper-body injury -- but the 12th overall pick in the 2021 NHL Draft remains a key part of Columbus' future.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Activated from IR

    Sillinger (upper body) was activated from injured reserve Sunday.

    Sillinger is expected to return from a five-game absence in Sunday's contest against Florida. He has picked up one goal, eight assists, 42 shots on net, 25 blocked shots and 23 hits across 24 appearances this season.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Moved to IR

    Sillinger (upper body) was placed on the injured reserve list Wednesday.

    Sillinger has a goal and nine points in 24 contests in 2023-24. He hasn't played since last Wednesday, so this move is presumably retroactive to that date. If that's the case, then Sillinger can be activated whenever he's healthy, though Columbus probably wouldn't have made this move unless the 20-year-old was expected to at least miss one more game. Emil Bemstrom, who was summoned from AHL Cleveland in a corresponding move, might play Thursday against the Islanders in Sillinger's stead.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Remains out Tuesday

    Sillinger (upper body) won't play Tuesday versus the Kings, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.

    Sillinger will sit for a third straight game with the injury. With Patrik Laine (illness) also sidelined, Mathieu Olivier is set to draw in on the fourth line while Alexandre Texier moves up to the third line. Sillinger's next chance to play is Thursday versus the Islanders.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Still day-to-day

    Sillinger (upper body) is not expected to play Sunday against Boston, according to Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site.

    Sillinger, who remains day-to-day, will miss his second straight contest. He has registered one goal, eight assists, 42 shots on net, 25 blocked shots and 23 hits over 24 games this campaign. Mathieu Olivier has been playing during Sillinger's absence.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Out Friday

    Sillinger (upper body) will not suit up Friday against the Senators, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.

    Sillinger was injured Wednesday against Montreal and will now miss at least one game as a result. The team has not yet given a timeline on when he's expected to return. The 20-year-old has nine points in 24 games this season, including four in his last seven appearances.
