James Wisniewski scored a goal in Tuesday's 4-0 victory against San Jose.

Wisniewski has found the back of the net twice in his last two games. He's missed time this season due to a broken foot, but he should end the season on a high note.

James Wisniewski was all right after limping off the ice late in the first period Sunday.

Wisniewski returned from a broken foot in late March and has been wearing a foot protector but the protector opened up, forcing him off the ice. "I couldn't skate," Wisniewski said. "I was so mad." It was fixed and he will continue to wear the extra protection. Wisniewski has four goals and 11 points in only 21 games so continue to use the scoring blueliner in your lineup.

Columbus has activated James Wisniewski from injured reserve.

He has missed 14 games with a broken foot, but will get back into Columbus' lineup for the first time since Feb. 24. Wisniewski has been limited to 15 games this season because of injuries, but when he's been healthy he has contributed nine points. The Jackets are going to dress seven defensemen in Thursday's contest against Edmonton.

James Wisniewski (foot) is "real close" to getting back in Columbus' lineup, according to coach Todd Richards.

He has been practicing with the Blue Jackets for more than a week now after missing 14 games with a broken foot. "There's a possibility with go with seven defensemen," said Richards referring to Thursday's game at Edmonton.

James Wisniewski (foot) will travel with Columbus on their upcoming four-game road trip, which begins Saturday in Nashville.

He has missed the past 11 games with a broken foot, but has skated for the last three days. "I wouldn't be going on the trip if I didn't think I could play," Wisniewski said. "This is the hardest part of the process, these first few days getting your body back as close to game shape as possible. But you have to get through it."

James Wisniewski has been placed on injured reserve by Columbus and he's projected to be out of action for four-to-six weeks with a broken foot.

He suffered the injury when he was struck by a shot during Sunday's game against Chicago. Wisniewski has produced all three of his goals on the power play this year and he has nine points in 15 games.

James Wisniewski has a broken bone in his foot and will be out "an extended period of time," according to coach Todd Richards.

Wisniewski did not practice Tuesday after being seen with a noticeable limp following Sunday's game. Richards said the injury occurred during that game, which is pretty incredible considering Wisniewski finished the game with a team-high 26:55 of ice time. Wisniewski's loss will sting some fantasy owners, but is much more significant for the Blue Jackets. We'll list him as out indefinitely for now and update you when we get a more concrete timeline.

"We're all banged up," said teammate Derek MacKenzie, who had an ice pack on his left shoulder after the game. "The grind has officially started." We'll let you know if we hear anything more.

Todd Richards split up his defensive pairing of James Wisniewski and Jack Johnson on Monday.

The two are offensive type defensemen so Richards put them with more defensive-minder partners are Wisniewski played alongside John Moore while Johnson was paired with veteran Adrian Aucoin.
