Elvis Merzlikins - Backing up Thursday Merzlikins (illness) is well enough Thursday to back up Jet Greaves versus Dallas, according to Columbus sports reporter Dave Maetzold.

Impact Merzlikins was forced to leaves Tuesday's tilt versus Ottawa after the first stanza due to his illness. Merzlikins was saddled with the loss, giving up two goal on seven shots in a 4-1 defeat. He is 8-8-1 with a 3.81 GAA and an .882 save percentage across 18 games this season.

Jet Greaves - Projected starter Thursday Greaves is slated to guard the home cage versus Dallas on Thursday, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.

Impact Greaves has won his last two starts and came on in relief Tuesday versus the Senators, turning aside 12 of 13 shots. Overall, the 24-year-old netminder is 14-12-6 with a 2.70 GAA and a .908 save percentage across 33 appearances this season. The Stars are tied for seventh in NHL scoring, generating 3.32 goals per game in 2025-26.

Denton Mateychuk - Designated for IR Mateychuk (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Thursday.

Impact Mateychuk has already been out of action for the Jackets' last four contests and will now be on the sidelines for a fifth when the Jackets face the Stars on Thursday. With the blueliner going on IR, the team used the available roster spot to activate Mason Marchment (upper body). Still, once Mateychuk gets the green light, he should slot back into a top-four pairing.

Mason Marchment - Activated by Columbus The Blue Jackets activated Marchment (upper body) off injured reserve Thursday.

Impact Marchment spent just over two weeks on injured reserve due to his upper-body injury, but he skated on the top line during Wednesday's practice session and should be able to suit up in Thursday's game against Dallas. Over 36 appearances between Seattle and Columbus this year, Marchment has recorded nine goals, 11 assists, 43 hits and 36 PIM while averaging 17:13 of ice time.

Hunter McKown - Racks up four points in AHL loss McKown scored a goal and added three assists in AHL Cleveland's 6-5 overtime loss to Chicago on Wednesday.

Impact This was just his second multi-point effort of the season. McKown is up to six goals, 14 points and a minus-6 rating over 37 appearances. Given his mediocre scoring so far, McKown doesn't seem likely to get an NHL look this season.

Sean Monahan - Pots goal in Tuesday's loss Monahan scored a goal on two shots and added two PIM in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Senators.

Impact Monahan ended a five-game point drought with the tally. The 31-year-old center has four points over eight outings since he returned from an undisclosed injury. He's been playing in a second-line role lately, which figures to limit some of his chances compared to the top-line gig he held earlier in the season. Monahan is at seven goals, 23 points, 74 shots on net, 26 hits, 21 blocked shots, 10 PIM and an even plus-minus rating through 45 appearances.

Jet Greaves - needed in relief Tuesday Greaves turned aside 12 of 13 shots after replacing Elvis Merzlikins (illness) to begin the second period of Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Senators.

Impact Ridly Greig tucked the puck past Greaves early in the third period on an Ottawa rush, but otherwise he kept things close after entering with Columbus down 2-1. Greaves has had a couple bumpy outings in January, going 3-2-1 over seven appearances with a 3.01 GAA and ,904 save percentage, but he remains at the top of the depth chart for the Blue Jackets.
