Blue Jackets' Dean Kukan: Placed on IR

Kukan suffered a fractured wrist in Monday's game against Dallas and was placed on injured reserve Tuesday. He's expected to miss eight weeks.

Kukan suited up in two games with Columbus this season, posting a plus-2 rating while averaging 14:49 of ice time. With this injury, he's expected to be out until at least late December and may not return until 2022. Adam Boqvist (undisclosed) or Scott Harrington should fill in during Kukan's absence.
