Blue Jackets' Zach Werenski: Avoids serious ankle injury Sunday
Werenski was able to return to action late in the third period Sunday after taking a shot off his ankle and getting helped off the ice, The Columbus Dispatch reports.
Analysis:
The Blue Jackets can count themselves lucky that their star rookie avoided any serious injury. Werenski scored his seventh goal of the season, a power-play tally, in the second period of Sunday's wild 7-6 overtime win over the Senators, and at this point appears to be on track to play Tuesday against the Islanders.
