COLUMBUS, Ohio -
The Columbus Blue Jackets have placed defenseman Jack Johnson on injured reserve and
recalled center Ryan Johansen from their American Hockey League affiliate in
Springfield, Mass.
Johnson has a goal and seven assists
in 17 games this year while averaging over 26 minutes on the ice per game. He
sustained an upper-body injury in Saturday night's 2-1 loss at St. Louis. He
will be evaluated further by club doctors after the Blue Jackets return to Columbus at the end of a six-game road trip
Sunday night at Chicago.
