Ivan Provorov - NHL News & Rumors

Remains week-to-week Provorov (lower body) is expected to remain sidelined on injured reserve on a week-to-week basis, per Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers.

Impact Provorov has been sidelined since the late portions of training camp with a lower-body injury, which has caused him to miss all of the 2026-27 season thus far. He's expected to remain out for at least another week, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him kept out of the lineup until early November, given that his injury timeline hasn't improved since the start of the regular season. Provorov will be relevant in deep fantasy leagues upon his return after posting 31 points, 158 shots on net and 134 blocked shots across 82 regular-season games in the 2025-26 campaign.

Placed on injured reserve Provorov (lower body) was placed on injured reserve by the Blue Jackets on Thursday, per the NHL media site.

Impact Head coach Rick Bowness said Thursday that Provorov is considered week-to-week, and the 29-year-old will officially be sidelined for at least the first week of the regular season. Provorov had appeared in all 82 regular-season games in each of the last four years, most recently generating nine goals, 22 assists, 134 blocked shots, 34 PIM and 28 hits while averaging 24:49 of ice time last season.

Not skating Provorov (undisclosed) hasn't been on the ice for three straight days, Brian Hedger of The Columbus Dispatch reports Wednesday.

Impact Provorov hasn't been ruled out for Columbus' season opener against Buffalo on Thursday, but he's now missed enough morning skates for it to be concerning. The 29-year-old defenseman had nine goals and 31 points in 82 regular-season appearances with Columbus in 2025-26. If Provorov can't play Thursday, then Emil Andrae will probably draw into the lineup.

Reaches 30 points in loss Provorov tallied a goal in Saturday's 2-1 loss to Winnipeg.

Impact Provorov found the back of the net less than 90 seconds into regulation during Saturday's clash. Overall, the 29-year-old blueliner is up to nine goals, 30 points, 142 shots on net, 27 hits and 130 blocked shots across 77 games this season. His tally Saturday helped him secure 30 points or more in five of his last seven seasons. He's provided the Blue Jackets' defensive core with strong category coverage and remains a solid option in deep fantasy leagues for the remainder of the regular season.

Pots goal Wednesday Provorov scored a goal and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Blackhawks.

Impact Provorov ended his 18-game goal drought with a first-period tally. The 29-year-old defenseman earned five assists with a plus-9 rating, 38 shots on net and 31 blocked shots in that span. He's up to a total of six goals, 20 points, 111 shots, 94 blocks, 26 PIM, 23 hits and a plus-15 rating over 56 appearances. Provorov's steady defense keeps him in a top-four role, giving him appeal in deeper fantasy formats.

Gathers helper Saturday Provorov logged a power-play assist and three blocked shots in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Blues.

Impact The latter half of January wasn't kind to Provorov's offense. His helper Saturday ended an eight-game point drought, during which he had 21 shots on net and a plus-5 rating. The 29-year-old defenseman is at 19 points (three on the power play), 110 shots on net, 92 blocked shots and a plus-12 rating through 54 appearances. He plays a shutdown role, but he could still challenge for the 30-point mark if his offense comes back around.

Scores in win over NYI Provorov scored a goal in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Islanders.

Impact Provorov evened things up for the Islanders at the 15:27 mark of the third period, and his goal sparked a run of three unanswered goals for Columbus. Provorov sees most of his even-strength playing time in the first pairing but also has a role in special teams, so he tends to log heavy minutes regularly in the Blue Jackets' blue line. He's up to five goals and 14 points this season, but he's slightly behind pace to reach the 30-point mark for a third straight campaign.

Two helpers in OT loss Provorov pocketed two assists, one on the power play, in Saturday's 7-6 overtime loss to the Panthers.

Impact The veteran blueliner had a hand in the Blue Jackets' first two tallies in the wild afternoon contest. It was Provorov's first multi-point performance of the season, but he's gotten onto the scoresheet in three straight games, giving him four goals and 11 points in 28 games with 56 shots on net, 45 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating to begin 2025-26.

Buries goal in shootout win Provorov scored a goal on four shots, blocked two shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 6-5 shootout win over the Red Wings.

Impact Provorov ended his 11-game goal drought with the tally. He had two assists, 18 shots on net and 21 blocks in that span. The 28-year-old continues to be a defensive stalwart for the Blue Jackets, though his hefty ice time (25:32 per game) hasn't led to an improvement on offense. He's at nine points, 55 shots on net, 42 blocks, 14 hits and a plus-5 rating across 27 appearances.
