Sean Monahan Not Expected To Return Until March
1 min agoAccording to Aaron Portzline of The Athletic, Columbus Blue Jackets center Sean Monahan (wrist) is expected to be sidelined until mid-March after facing a setback. Monahan suffered this injury during their game against the Pittsburgh Penguins in January. He was placed on the injured reserve shortly after but now is in danger of missing more time as he was originally expected to return in February. Before the injury, Monahan tallied 41 points (14 goals, 27 helpers) across 41 contests with a +17 rating. While he continues to be sidelined, fantasy managers should expect Adam Fantilli to remain in the top center role. In his absence, the former first-round selection has begun to break out at the NHL level, as he has tallied 13 points over his previous 12.
