Mathieu Olivier & Justin Danforth Questionable For Tomorrow's Game Due To Injuries
This is not the time for the Blue Jackets to start suffering injuries.
According to HC Dean Evason, both Mathieu Olivier and Justin Danforth have minor injuries and are questionable for Thursday's game against the Washington Capitals.
The injuries are not expected to be long-term, and the hope is for them to play tomorrow.
Dean Evason said Mathieu Olivier and Justin Danforth both have lower-body injuries. Neither practiced today. They hope to have both of them tomorrow but sounds like it’s not guaranteed either way. Not long-term injuries for either, though. CBJ
