Blue Jackets' Patrik Laine: Enters Player Assistance program

Laine (collarbone) entered the NHL/NHLPA Player Assistance Program on Sunday.

Laine has already missed 17 games with a fractured clavicle, and it now appears he'll be away from the Blue Jackets indefinitely. He'll enter the Player Assistance Program after reportedly suffering a setback in his recovery from the injury. The 25-year-old winger had six goals and nine points in 18 games prior to the injury.
