Jake Bean Returns To Action Against Toronto
3 years agoColumbus Blue Jackets defenseman Jake Bean (groin) will rejoin the lineup for Monday's home game against Toronto. This will be his first appearance since Jan. 30. Bean has posted 15 points in 41 outings this season, and he also hasn't been afraid to put his body on the line, tallying 54 blocks. He'll line up with Gabriel Carlsson on the third defensive pairing, replacing Gavin Bayreuther. This is a matchup against a team that has registered a league-worst .876 save percentage since Jan. 9, so Bean returns in a good spot from an offensive standpoint.
