Blue Jackets frustrated to miss the NHL playoffs for the fifth consecutive year

Casey Cizikas - Nabs helper in loss Cizikas logged an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 6-1 loss to the Blue Jackets.
Impact Cizikas recorded five points over the final 12 games of the season to salvage some scoring late in the year. He finished with 17 points in 82 games, his lowest output in the last three seasons. He also had a minus-13 rating, 97 shots on net, 51 PIM, 202 hits and 66 blocked shots while playing in a bottom-six role. Cizikas is under contract for two more years, so expect more of the same from the defensive center in 2025-26.

Hudson Fasching - Scores lone goal in loss Fasching scored a goal on four shots in Thursday's 6-1 loss to the Blue Jackets.
Impact Fasching had two goals over the last five games of the season. The 29-year-old winger generally struggled this year, posting just four points in 43 outings after earning 14 points in 45 games the year before. He's set to be an unrestricted free agent this summer, though he may have to settle for a two-way contract.

Jordan Harris - Posts assist Thursday Harris logged an assist and two hits in Thursday's 6-1 win over the Islanders.
Impact Harris played in the Blue Jackets' last four games of the season after a 22-game stint as a healthy scratch. The 24-year-old was limited to five points, 15 shots on net, 23 hits and 35 blocked shots over 33 appearances this season. He's one of four restricted free agents for the Blue Jackets this summer, who also have nine unrestricted free agents. Given his poor season, he probably won't be prioritized in negotiations, assuming he's given a qualifying offer.

Dante Fabbro - Pots goal Thursday Fabbro scored a goal on three shots, blocked five shots and went plus-3 in Thursday's 6-1 win over the Islanders.
Impact Fabbro posted six points over 10 contests in April to end the season strong. The 26-year-old defenseman flourished with the Blue Jackets after getting claimed off waivers from the Predators. He ends the campaign with nine goals, 26 points, 89 shots on net, 67 hits, 143 blocked shots, 40 PIM and a plus-20 rating over 68 appearances. Fabbro is an unrestricted free agent this summer, one of nine UFAs on the Columbus roster, but general manager Don Waddell will likely have him near the top of the list for contract talks between now and July 1.
