Zach Werenski Sidelined Monday Against Rangers Due to Illness

Zach Werenski, initially a game-time decision, has been officially ruled out for Monday's game against the Rangers due to an illness. This marks his fifth missed game of the season. The Columbus Blue Jackets blueliner, who was on a nine-game point streak, will be replaced by Egor Zamula. Werenski is expected to target Tuesday's home game against Nashville for his return, as the illness is not considered a long-term concern.
