Scores goal in return Werenski scored a goal and took six shots in Wednesday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Maple Leafs.

Impact Werenski suffered an injury in Monday's 5-1 loss to the Capitals but didn't miss time, and he looked as good as he's been all season long. The star blueliner has been on a tear of late, and that game against Washington was the only time in which he hasn't cracked the scoresheet in his last eight outings. Over that span, the 28-year-old has racked up four goals, seven assists, 38 shots on goal, five hits and nine blocked shots.

Slated to play Wednesday Werenski (upper body) is expected to play Wednesday against Toronto, per Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site.

Impact Werenski sustained an upper-body injury during Monday's 5-1 loss to Washington, but the issue won't cause him to miss a game. He has seven goals and 21 points in 23 outings this year. Look for him to serve on the top pairing and first power-play unit Wednesday.

Impact This is great news for the Blue Jackets and fantasy managers alike, as Werenski appears to have avoided a serious injury. NHL Insider Frank Seravalli said Tuesday that the Blue Jackets believe Werenski will be good to go for Wednesday's home matchup versus Toronto, but that's certainly not a guarantee depending on how the all-world defenseman feels after the morning skate. If Werenski is forced to miss any time, Denton Mateychuk would be a candidate to receive increased opportunities on the blue line.

Injured against Caps Werenski sustained an upper-body injury during Monday's game versus the Capitals and will not return.

Impact Werenski didn't come out for the start of the third period and was ruled out shortly thereafter. The star blueliner logged four shots on goal and one block in 17:36 of ice time prior to exiting the contest. There will be a big void to fill on Columbus' blue line if Werenski is forced to miss any time. He should be considered day-to-day ahead of Wednesday's home matchup versus the Maple Leafs.
