This is a huge blow for the Blue Jackets, who also lost Nick Blankenburg long-term last week. Jake Bean replaced Werenski on the top power-play after he left the game and figures to be a key figure on their blueline moving forward. Werenski should make a full recovery and be back in time for next year's training camp.

Werenski should make a full recovery and be back in time for next year's training camp.
Werenski left Thursday's game with an upper-body injury, and head coach Brad Larsen said that "it's not going to be good at all." This is obviously a massive blow for the Blue Jackets, who are already without Adam Boqvist on the blueline and Jakub Voracek up front.
Werenski returned to the lineup in Tampa on Tuesday but will miss the final two games of the regular season after breaking his nose. Werenski finishes the 2022 season with 11 goals and 37 assists (48 points) in 68 games.
Werenski missed the last three games with an upper-body injury but will play Tuesday in Tampa. Werenski has scored five goals with 17 assists (22 points) in his last 25 games.
Werenski played just 1:23 TOI in Anaheim on Sunday before leaving with an upper-body injury. That injury will keep him sidelined on Tuesday, with Gavin Bayreuther expected to draw into the lineup to replace him.
Werenski missed the last three games with an upper-body injury but will play Monday vs. the Bruins. Werenski will be back on the top pair with Andrew Peeke and the top power-play unit. Werenski has tallied 17 points (4G / 13A) in his last 18 games.
Werenski suffered an upper-body injury in Minnesota on Saturday and will not play Tuesday. Werenski will be replaced by Adam Boqvist at 5v5 and likely on PP1 as well.
Werenski missed the last four games with an upper-body injury but will replace Jake Christiansen in the lineup on Friday. Werenski was red-hot before getting hurt, scoring two goals with six assists (eight points) in his last six games.
Werenski is day-to-day with an upper-body injury and did not travel with the club on their two-game road trip in Florida/Carolina. Gabriel Carlsson is expected to replace Werenski in the lineup on Thursday.
Werenski missed the last two games while in COVID-19 protocol but will play Saturday vs. the Devils. Werenski has played very well since the middle of November, tallying 14 points (4G / 10A) in his last 19 games.
Werenski was not on the ice for Monday's practice and was placed on the COVID-19 protocol list on Tuesday. With Werenski out, Adam Boqvist moved up to the top pairing and is expected to be on the top power-play unit as well.
Werenski has not played since February 13th but will replace Scott Harrington in the lineup on Thursday. Werenski had a slow start to the season but had four assists in his last six games before getting injured.
Werenski returned to the lineup on Saturday but is not 100 percent, so he'll come out of the lineup Monday in Carolina. With Werenski sidelined, Dean Kukan will draw back in. Consider Werenski day-to-day.
Werenski has missed the last two games with a lower-body injury but will be back on the top pair with Seth Jones and top PP unit on Saturday. Werenski has had a slow start to the season, scoring one goal with three assists in his first 12 games.
According to John Tortorella, Werenksi is "banged up" and will not play on Sunday. In Saturday's practice Dean Kukan took Werenski's spot next to Seth Jones and it looks as if Scott Harrington will draw in as the sixth defenseman.
This is surprising. The Blue Jackets announced that Werenski will miss one month with a sprained AC joint just over two weeks ago, but activating him from IR suggests he will play tonight in Detroit. The 22-year-old is a Michigan native, so he will be playing in front of family if he is in the lineup and comes in with 16 points (6G / 10A) in 26 games this season.
