The Blue Jackets placed McElhinney on injured reserve Sunday with an upper body injury.
Analysis:
McElhinney will be out at least another week with a head injury suffered in Saturday's game, so the Blue Jackets placed him on injured reserve to open up a roster spot. Anton Forsberg was called up on an emergency basis from AHL Springfield to take McElhinney's place on the roster.
