Sidelined for Saturday's tilt Monahan (upper body) will not play in Saturday's home clash against the Flyers, per Aaron Portzline of The Athletic.

Impact Monahan appeared to sustain his upper-body injury in Thursday's game against the Lightning, as the veteran center logged just under 10 minutes of ice time. Across 17 outings this season, the 32-year-old forward has posted a goal, seven points, 18 shots on net, nine hits and 11 blocked shots this season. In his absence, Luca Del Bel Belluz will likely slot into the lineup up the center of the ice. Monahan's next chance to return is Tuesday's outing in Long Island.

Labeled day-to-day Monahan (upper body) is still being evaluated but hasn't been ruled out against the Flyers on Saturday, Brian Hedger of The Columbus Dispatch reports.

Impact Officially, Monahan was deemed day-to-day ahead of Saturday's contest, so there is still a chance he can play. The veteran center has scored a goal since Opening Night against the Sabres on Oct. 1, a stretch of 16 games, but he has managed four helpers over his last seven contests. If Monahan were to be unavailable versus Philadelphia, Charlie Coyle would likely move into a top-six role.

Impact Monahan registered an assist in 9:58 of ice time before exiting the match. The helper gives him seven points, including a goal, across 17 outings this season. Luca Del Bel Belluz might draw into the lineup for Saturday's game against Philadelphia if Monahan isn't available.

Ruled out for remainder of Friday's game Monahan (lower body) has been ruled out for the remainder of Friday's game in Buffalo.

Impact According to Aaron Portzline of The Athletic, Monahan exited the game after blocking a shot during the middle frame. The 32-year-old Monahan logged an even-strength assist and three blocked shots in 11:06 of ice time prior to his departure. The Blue Jackets' next game isn't until Tuesday versus the Panthers, so Monahan will have some time to recover for that matchup if his injury isn't overly serious.

Tallies on power play Monahan scored a power-play goal in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Sabres.

Impact Monahan scored to stretch the lead to 5-3 in the third period. The 31-year-old center is healthy to begin the campaign after battling injuries late in the season. That's been a common theme in his down years, though his 78 games played in 2025-26 were his second-most in the last five seasons. For now, he's penciled into a top-six role, but he could shift to the third line if his production starts to slip.

OCTOBER 2 • Associated Press

Ready for 2026-27 campaign Monahan is back to 100 percent ahead of the 2026-27 campaign after playing through injuries last year, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports Monday.

Impact Monahan ended the 2025-26 campaign having scored just one goal in the final 22 games of the regular season while chipping in just six assists. The lack of offensive production could be an indication of the effect his undisclosed injuries had on him. If he can get back to being 100 percent, Monahan should be capable of pushing for the 50-point threshold, a number he previously reached seven times in his career.

SEPTEMBER 11 • ROTOWIRE

Deposits goal in win Monahan scored a goal on four shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Canadiens.

Impact The tally ended a 19-game goal drought for the center. That drop in scoring, which also included an 11-game point drought, has seen him slip into a fourth-line role under interim head coach Rick Bowness. Monahan has 13 goals, 23 assists, 129 shots on net, 42 hits, 34 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating over 76 appearances this season. His 10.1 shooting percentage is the second-lowest of his career, which likely explains most of his struggles.

Heating up at right time Monahan delivered two assists in a 5-2 win over Tampa Bay on Tuesday.

Impact Monahan has six points in his last six games (two goals, four assists; 19 shots); he put up points in five of those six. It was his first two-point game since Jan. 8. Monahan's leadership is helping the team climb the standings; they are just two points out of a Wild Card spot.

Shortie in second straight Monahan scored a shorthanded goal in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Predators.

Impact The tally tied the game at 2-2 early in the second period, as Monahan's toe-drag let enough traffic build up in front of Justus Annunen that he was able to pinball a shot home. Monahan has two shorties on the season, and they've come in the last two games as he begins to regain something close to his 2024-25 form. Over the last 12 contests, the veteran center has scored six of his 12 goals on the season.

Buries shorthanded goal Monahan scored a shorthanded goal on three shots in Monday's 5-4 overtime win over the Rangers.

Impact Monahan picked up his first point in three games since the Olympic break. The 31-year-old center hadn't scored a shorthanded goal since the 2023-24 campaign with the Canadiens, though he had three helpers on the penalty kill last year. Monahan has been limited to 11 goals, 28 points, 92 shots on net and a plus-1 rating over 55 appearances this season, cutting his production in half compared to his 57-point effort over 54 outings a year ago.

Back at practice Thursday Monahan (illness) returned to practice Thursday after missing Wednesday's skate, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.

Impact Monahan had a mediocre start to the season, tallying 10 goals and 17 assists in 52 appearances this season. The 31-year-old managed 19 goals and 57 points in 52 games during the 2024-25 regular season.

FEBRUARY 19 • ROTOWIRE

Misses practice Wednesday Monahan didn't participate in Wednesday's practice due to an illness, per Aaron Portzline of The Athletic.

Impact Columbus' schedule doesn't resume until Feb. 26 versus Boston, so Monahan has plenty of time to recover before he's in danger of missing playing time. The 31-year-old has 10 goals and 27 points in 52 outings in 2025-26.

FEBRUARY 18 • ROTOWIRE

Fills empty cage Monahan scored an empty-net goal on four shots and added two PIM in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Blackhawks.

Impact Monahan has four goals and an assist over his last eight games, giving him a little momentum that he'll try to pick up after the Olympic break. The center is at 10 goals, 27 points, 87 shots on net and a plus-2 rating through 52 appearances this season. He should continue to see top-six minutes and power-play time after the break.
