Bean (undisclosed) exited Wednesday's preseason game versus the Canucks in the third period, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

EDGE Analysis

There was no update available on Bean's status after the contest. The 26-year-old defenseman can be considered day-to-day ahead of Saturday's preseason rematch with the Canucks.

Bean (hand) is ready to go for the start of the season, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Bean is practicing with the first group at camp after missing the last six games of the regular season with Columbus in 2023-24. Bean had four goals and 13 points with 110 blocked shots in 72 regular-season contests with the Blue Jackets last year. Columbus did not give Bean a qualifying offer and the 26-year-old defenseman signed with his hometown team. Bean is expected to be a third-pairing defenseman with Calgary this season.

Bean (hand) agreed to terms on a two-year, $3.5 million contract with Calgary on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Bean will link up with his hometown club after the Blue Jackets decided not to give him a qualifying offer. The 26-year-old blueliner saw action in 72 regular-season contests last year in which he generated four goals, nine assists and 110 blocked shots. Offensively, Bean is rather limited, having reached the 25-point threshold once in his career, though he's lost a lot of time to injuries over the last four years.

Bean (hand) is not expected to get a qualifying offer from Columbus on Sunday, according to PuckPedia.

EDGE Analysis

As a result, Bean will be eligible to test the open market Monday as an unrestricted free agent. The 26-year-old rearguard contributed four goals, nine points, 76 shots on net and 110 blocked shots in 72 games during the 2023-24 campaign. He sat out the final six games of the regular season after suffering a broken hand against the Islanders on April 4. Bean could be healthy before training camps open in the fall, so the injury shouldn't impact his ability to find a new deal elsewhere.

Bean will miss the remainder of the 2023-24 campaign after suffering a broken hand during Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Islanders.

EDGE Analysis

Bean will finish the season with four goals, 13 points, 32 PIM, 28 hits and 110 blocks in 72 games. Adam Boqvist (upper body) is also out indefinitely, so the Blue Jackets are down to five healthy defensemen and will likely recall someone from the minors before Saturday's tilt versus the Flyers. Bean is set to become a restricted free agent with arbitration rights this summer after finishing his three-year, $7 million deal. If Bean re-signs with the Blue Jackets, he will probably serve primarily in a third-pairing role next season.

Bean (undisclosed) will miss the remainder of the season, per Coby Maeir of 1st Ohio Battery.

EDGE Analysis

Bean was injured after blocking a shot Thursday against the Islanders. He'll finish the season with four goals, nine assists and 110 blocked shots in 72 appearances. Look for the Blue Jackets to recall a defenseman ahead of Saturday's game versus Philadelphia, as they currently have only five healthy rearguards on the roster.

Bean (undisclosed) will be out for "a while" after exiting Thursday's game versus the Isles in the third period following a blocked shot, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

A roster move is likely incoming, as the Blue Jackets currently have just five healthy defensemen. Given the time of the year and the team's poor placement in the standings, Bean could be shut down for the rest of the campaign due to even a moderate injury. Jake Christiansen is the most likely candidate to rise to the NHL roster as a replacement.

Bean notched an assist in Monday's 6-3 victory over the Golden Knights.

EDGE Analysis

Bean was able to end a five-game pointless streak but still hasn't managed to find the back of the net since Jan. 27 versus Vancouver, a stretch of 13 contests without a marker. Considering the 25-year-old defenseman hasn't recorded a shot in seven straight outings, fantasy players probably shouldn't be expecting him to generate much in the way of offensive output any time soon.

Bean scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

Bean converted off a turnover created by Yegor Chinakhov's takeaway. With five points over his last 13 outings, Bean has at least put up respectable offense for a bottom-four defenseman lately. He's at eight points, 61 shots on net, 66 blocked shots and a minus-12 rating through 45 appearances, so most fantasy managers can do better for their defensive depth.

Bean scored a goal Thursday in a 3-2 shootout win over the Flyers.

EDGE Analysis

Bean has three points, including two goals, in his last five games after wallowing through a 26-game point drought. But he also got danced by Travis Konecny on one of the Philly goals, exposing his defensive limits. Bean has the skating and offensive skills to contribute fantasy points, but at 25, he's yet to play a full NHL season. Don't over-invest. That drought is still too fresh.
