Greaves was sent down to AHL Cleveland on Saturday, according to Aaron Portzline of The Athletic.
Greaves is the third goaltender in the Columbus system behind Elvis Merzlikins and Daniil Tarasov. The 23-year-old Greaves appeared in nine NHL games in 2023-24, going 3-6-0 with a 3.49 GAA and a .908 save percentage for a lowly Columbus team that failed to make the playoffs. He sparkled in 46 AHL regular-season appearances with Cleveland, winning 30 games. He should be the first goaltender recalled if there are any injuries to Merzlikins or Tarasov.

Blue Jackets' Jet Greaves: Impresses in preseason road win
Rotowire
Greaves stopped 22 of 23 shots in Tuesday's 3-1 preseason win over the Blues.
Greaves improved from his previous outing, doing his part to shut down a fairly veteran Blues roster in this contest. While it was a strong performance, there is little chance he makes the Opening Night roster for the Blue Jackets. Greaves could be an option if Columbus carries three goalies, but he remains behind Elvis Merzlikins and Daniil Tarasov on the depth chart.

Blue Jackets' Jet Greaves: Protecting road net
Rotowire
Greaves will start on the road versus the Blues in Tuesday's preseason game, Matthew DeFranks of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Greaves allowed three goals on 15 shots in his previous start against the Sabres. The 23-year-old netminder is unlikely to make the Opening Night roster, and a poor performance Tuesday could lead to him being sent to AHL Cleveland.

Blue Jackets' Jet Greaves: Starting in Buffalo
Rotowire
Greaves will defend the road net in Monday's preseason matchup against the Sabres, according to Joe Yerdon of Bleacher Report.
Greaves earned a 3-6-0 record with a 3.49 GAA and a .908 save percentage over nine regular-season contests with Columbus in 2023-24. He will probably begin the upcoming campaign in the minors because Elvis Merzlikins and Daniil Tarasov are expected to occupy the top two spots for the Blue Jackets on Opening Night.

Blue Jackets' Jet Greaves: Facing Hurricanes
Rotowire
Greaves will patrol the home crease versus Carolina in Tuesday's season finale, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.
Greaves has gone 2-6-0 in limited NHL action this season, but he's posted a decent .906 save percentage behind a poor Blue Jackets team over that stretch. He'll try to secure his third career NHL victory in a rough home matchup with a red-hot Hurricanes squad that's won five straight games.

Blue Jackets' Jet Greaves: Busy in Thursday's loss
Rotowire
Greaves turned aside 42 shots in Thursday's 4-0 loss to the Panthers.
Matthew Tkachuk ripped a shot past Greaves just 47 seconds into the first period, and the 23-year-old netminder got little help the rest of the night as he faced a season-high 46 shots on net. Since his promotion in early April, Greaves has allowed 11 goals on 142 shots (.923 save percentage), but he has just a 3.02 GAA and 1-3-0 record to show for it as the Blue Jackets get ready to head back to the draft lottery.

Blue Jackets' Jet Greaves: Falls to Florida
Rotowire
Greaves stopped 31 of 34 shots in Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Panthers.
Florida's final two goals were scored into an empty net. Greaves played well and made some big saves to keep Columbus in the game on an afternoon in which the team was out-shot 36-19. The 22-year-old has started two straight games with Elvis Merzlikins (illness) on injured reserve, turning aside 72 of 77 shots for a .935 save percentage, and those performances could earn Greaves another turn between the pipes when the Jackets return to the ice Thursday in Toronto.

Blue Jackets' Jet Greaves: Excellent in season debut
Rotowire
Greaves stopped 41 of 43 shots in Friday's 5-2 win over the Blues.
Greaves turned in a stellar performance in his first NHL contest of the season. He also received ample support from his offense to secure the win. The 22-year-old is in the NHL while Elvis Merzlikins (illness) and Daniil Tarasov (knee) work their way back. With no back-to-backs over the next week, Greaves is unlikely to see any more playing time during this stint with the big club.

Blue Jackets' Jet Greaves: Sent down Friday
Rotowire
Greaves was reassigned to AHL Cleveland on Friday, per CapFriendly.
Greaves lost out to Spencer Martin in competition to be backup to Elvis Merzlikins while Daniil Tarasov (knee) is out. The 22-year-old Greaves should play regularly with Cleveland. Given the Blue Jackets' luck with keeping goalies healthy in recent years, Greaves may get some NHL time later in the season.

Blue Jackets' Jet Greaves: Returned to minors
Rotowire
Greaves was sent back to AHL Cleveland on Wednesday.
Greaves looked decent in his NHL debut against the Leafs on Tuesday, stopping 46 of 49 shots faced (.939 save percentage) but wasn't able to secure a victory. With their season lost, the Jackets will likely continue to rotate their backstops, recalling Jon Gillies in a corresponding move. As such, there is a chance Greaves could see another game before the end of the regular season, especially if Elvis Merzlikins (lower body) remains shelved.

Blue Jackets' Jet Greaves: Recalled on emergency basis
Rotowire
Greaves was recalled by the Blue Jackets on an emergency basis Wednesday.
Elvis Merzlikins (illness) won't be available for Wednesday's regular-season opener against Carolina, so Greaves will join the big club and serve as Daniil Tarasov's backup versus the Hurricanes. Greaves will almost certainly return to the minors once Merzlikins is ready to return.
