Another key player hits the injury report for the Blue Jackets, who are now without forward Gustav Nyquist 'indefinitely'
“He’s got more of a voice than people think, in the room, but his best asset is he does it by example,” Larsen said of Nyquist. “He doesn’t have to say much because he’s always prepared, he gets himself in great shape, his competitiveness is always there, so all those attributes you want in a player, he has them.”
The Blue Jackets’ update on Nyquist didn’t specify the injury, calling it an “upper body” injury, but he was spotted on the bench testing out this left shoulder after taking a hard hit late in the first period. If so, that's the same shoulder that was surgically repaired Nov. 4, 2020 and kept him out for the COVID-19 shortened 56-game 2020-21 season.
Emil Bemstrom, a healthy scratch in Edmonton, drew back into the lineup Friday at Rogers Arena against the Vancouver Canucks. Defenseman Gavin Bayreuther also returned as a replacement for rookie Nick Blankenburg, who missed the morning skate and game with an undisclosed upper-body injury.
