Top Cole Sillinger News

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Sent to AHL

    Sillinger was reassigned to AHL Cleveland on Thursday.

    It has been a real tough sophomore season for Sillinger, who snapped a 45-game goalless streak March 17 with his third goal of the season. Sillinger has 11 points in 64 games after scoring 16 times and adding 15 assists as an 18-year-old rookie in 2021-22. Look for a rebound season in 2023-24, as he should regain some confidence playing in the AHL the rest of the way.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Provides power-play goal

    Sillinger scored a power-play goal in Columbus' 7-4 loss to Anaheim on Friday.

    Sillinger's marker came late in the second period to tie the game at 3-3. He has three goals and 10 points in 62 appearances this season, including three points with the man advantage. Sillinger didn't score a goal over his previous 45 contests, and he had just four assists in that span.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Recalled from AHL

    As expected, Sillinger was recalled from AHL Cleveland on Friday. Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.

    Sillinger was sent to the minors Friday morning in a paper move that made him eligible for the AHL playoffs. The 19-year-old has struggled this season, scoring twice while adding six assists in 55 games with the Blue Jackets. Should Cleveland make the AHL playoffs, Sillinger will gain valuable experience that should help his game in the future.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Sent to AHL

    Sillinger was sent to AHL Cleveland on Friday, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports.

    This is a paper move to make Sillinger eligible for the AHL playoffs as the Blue Jackets would love to get their center extra playing time after the NHL season ends in April. Sillinger should be recalled at some point Friday. He has only two goals and six assists in 55 top-level games this season, a far cry from the 16 goals and 31 points he managed as an 18-year-old rookie in the 2021-22 season.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Playing Saturday

    Sillinger (illness) will be back in the lineup versus Edmonton on Saturday, Brian Hedger of The Columbus Dispatch reports.

    Sillinger sat out Thursday's tilt versus Minnesota with the illness, but was back at practice Friday. He has slumped this season, with only two goals and eight points in 52 games, after a 16-goalm 15-assist rookie campaign in 2021-22. The 19-year-old has plenty of talent and this is likely going to be a small blip in his NHL career.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Returns to practice Friday

    Sillinger (illness) was at practice Friday, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.

    Sillinger was unable to play Thursday versus Minnesota, but he could be ready to go versus the Oilers on Saturday. Sillinger, who was selected 12th overall in 2021, has two goals and eight points in 52 games this season after a 16-goal, 15-assist rookie performance in 2021-22.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Not available Thursday

    Sillinger won't play Thursday versus Minnesota because of an illness.

    Sillinger has two goals and eight points in 52 contests this season. While the Blue Jackets won't have Sillinger, Johnny Gaudreau, who missed the last two games because of a lower-body injury, is ready to return Thursday.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Goal drought continues

    Sillinger recorded four hits and three shots on goal during Tuesday's loss to the Predators.

    After an encouraging rookie season that saw him deliver 16 goals and 31 points in 79 games, Sillinger's sophomore slump has become a nightmare, and there's no light yet at the end of the tunnel. He hasn't found the back of the net in 23 straight contests, with his last goal coming Nov. 17, and he's managed only two assists and a minus-6 rating over that stretch. It's important to remember that the 12th overall pick in the 2021 NHL Draft doesn't even turn 20 until mid-May, and in the long run his struggles this season could be nothing more than a valuable learning experience. For now though, Sillinger only has fantasy value in deeper dynasty formats.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Taken off IR

    Sillinger (upper body) was activated from injured reserve Tuesday, per the NHL media site.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Moves to injured reserve

    Sillinger (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Thursday.

    Sillinger is still considered more in the day-to-day range, but the Blue Jackets will use his roster spot to activate Adam Boqvist (foot) in a corresponding move. Sillinger would be eligible to return following the holiday break -- the Blue Jackets host the Sabres on Tuesday in their first game after the pause.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Out with upper-body issue

    Sillinger (upper body) is not expected to play Tuesday against Philadelphia, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.

    Sillinger also didn't play Monday and it doesn't sound like he will be available to play before the holiday break.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Lends helping hand

    Sillinger supplied an assist in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Lightning.

    The Blue Jackets failed to bounce back from Tuesday's shutout loss to the Panthers, but the silver lining for Sillinger is that he put an end to a 12-game point drought. Just 19 years old, Sillinger is going to experience growing pains at the top level; he's produced two goals and four assists through 29 contests.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: On three-game point streak

    Sillinger scored a goal in Thursday's 6-4 win against Montreal.

    Sillinger got off to a really slow start, registering just two assists in his first 13 games. He is on a three-game point streak now though, giving him two goals and five points in 16 contests this season. He was taken with the No. 12 pick in the 2021 Draft and does have a lot of offensive upside.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Quiet start to season

    Sillinger has yet to record a point through the first seven games of the season.

    The 12th overall pick in the 2021 NHL Draft could be headed for a sophomore slump after recording 16 goals and 31 points through 79 games as an 18-year-old rookie last season. Sillinger continues to center the Blue Jackets' third line, and with fellow first-rounder Yegor Chinakhov (21st overall in the 2020 draft) catching fire alongside him with five points in the last four games, it may not be long before Sillinger finally gets onto the scoresheet.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Suiting up Monday

    Sillinger (upper body) practiced with Columbus' second group Saturday, per Brian Hedger of The Columbus Dispatch.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Returning to game action

    Sillinger (upper body) will play Thursday versus the Blues, Blue Jackets team reporter Jeff Svoboda reports.

    Sillinger has battled an upper-body injury during training camp, but he made it through full-contact practice Thursday without issue. The 19-year-old center will be eased in, playing between Mathieu Olivier and Cole Fonstad on the projected fourth line in this contest, though Sillinger should have a chance to challenge for top-six minutes once the regular season rolls around.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Practices Wednesday

    Sillinger (upper body) practiced in a non-contact jersey Wednesday, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports.

  • Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Day-to-day with upper-body injury

    Sillinger is day-to-day after suffering an upper-body injury in practice Thursday, according to Brian Hedger of the Columbus Dispatch.

    Sillinger had a very nice rookie campaign in 2021-22, as he scored 16 goals and added 15 assists in 79 games as an 18-year-old. Look for a big improvement this season, especially if he able to spend any time at forward with either Johnny Gaudreau and/or Patrik Laine.
