Nathan Horton (shoulder) will probably make his Columbus Blue Jackets debut on Thursday. Horton took part in Wednesday's optional skate. "It's not 100 percent, but there is a very good chance he will play," Blue Jackets coach Todd Richards. "It may not happen, but there is a really good chance." If he doesn't end up playing Thursday, it won't be much longer before he does make his debut, so if you've been stashing him away all season, get ready to activate him.
