4 years agoColumbus Blue Jackets defenseman Zach Werenski won't play on Saturday against Chicago and will miss the rest of the season due to an inguinal/sports hernia. The 23-year-old finishes the campaign with 20 points in 35 games. According to general manager Jarmo Kekalainen, Werenski played through the injury for most of the season. He had impressed lately with three goals in five games. With David Savard also out of the picture following his trade to Tampa, there are suddenly a lot of minutes to be handed out on Columbus' blue line. Michael Del Zotto, who has nine points in 39 games this season, gets a chance on the top defensive pairing on Saturday night.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
