Blue Jackets Recall Two, Assign Trey Fix-Wolansky To AHL

April 5, 2024 at 7:59 pm CDT | by Brian La Rose 1 Comment

On the heels of providing several injury updates earlier in the day, the Blue Jackets have made several roster moves.  The team announced that they’ve brought up defenseman Nick Blankenburg and goaltender Malcolm Subban on an emergency basis while winger Trey Fix-Wolansky was re-assigned to AHL Cleveland.

Blankenburg is in his third season with Columbus after signing as an undrafted free agent and has seen NHL action in all three years including six appearances this season where he has been held off the scoresheet.  The 25-year-old has battled back issues in the minors which has limited him to just 21 games with the Monsters despite spending most of the season at that level.  He has fared well offensively in the AHL, picking up 13 points.  The pending restricted free agent won’t be waiver-exempt next year and is expected to push for a full-time spot next season.

As for Subban, he was acquired from St. Louis at the trade deadline to give them some extra organizational depth between the pipes down the stretch.  The 30-year-old has a 3.12 GAA and .901 SV% in 35 AHL contests so far this season.  Subban, a pending unrestricted free agent, also has 86 career NHL appearances under his belt but with Elvis Merzlikins and Vadim Tarasov unavailable, Jet Greaves will likely serve as the starter in the short term.

Fix-Wolansky, meanwhile, was recalled on an emergency basis yesterday but with Johnny Gaudreau expected to return Saturday, emergency conditions no longer exist so he had to be sent down.  The 24-year-old is averaging more than a point per game in the minors for the second straight year, collecting 24 goals and 34 assists in 53 games so far.  Fix-Wolansky has an assist in ten games with the Blue Jackets as well.  He’s signed on a two-way deal through the 2024-25 season.

    You know it’s bad when both AHL goalies are called up.
