Marchenko registered an assist, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Flyers.

EDGE Analysis

Marchenko's offense has stalled a bit lately -- he has three assists over his last four games, but that followed a four-game slide. The 24-year-old winger is up to 73 points (31 goals, 42 assists), 206 shots on net, 55 hits and a plus-28 rating over 78 appearances. If the Blue Jackets are still in playoff contention for their game Thursday versus the Islanders, expect Marchenko to handle his usual top-line duties.

Marchenko put up a hat trick and added an assist in an 8-4 win over the Predators on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

It was his third NHL hat trick. Marchenko is on a four-game, eight-point scoring streak with 16 shots. He's just five shots from tying his career mark of 193, which he set last year. More impressively, Marchenko hit 70 points with the effort. He has 31 goals and 39 assists in 70 games; it's the first time in his NHL career that the young star has hit that height.

Marchenko tallied a goal and had two shots on net in Saturday's 3-2 loss to Ottawa.

EDGE Analysis

Marchenko lit the lamp midway through the third period to begin a late comeback for the Blue Jackets. However, they would ultimately fall short as Linus Ullmark shut Columbus out the rest of the way. With the goal, Marchenko is up to 28 goals, 66 points and 182 shots on net in 69 appearances this season. While the 24-year-old rising star had a rough start to the month offensively, he has four points in his last three games and is heating up in fantasy. He should contend for the 70-point mark by the end of the regular season, which would be the first time he reaches the 70-point threshold in his three-year career. Marchenko has great value in all fantasy formats for the remainder of the playoffs.

Marchenko recorded an even-strength goal and a power-play assist in Friday's 7-6 shootout win over the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

Marchenko tallied at 12:56 of the third period to send the game to overtime. The goal ended a five-game slump for the 24-year-old winger, who should greatly benefit from the return of Sean Monahan (wrist) from a long-term absence.

Marchenko is now at 26 goals, 63 points, 178 shots on net and a plus-28 rating through 67 appearances.

EDGE Analysis

Marchenko opened March with three scoreless outings before picking up a goal and an assist over his last two games. The 24-year-old is still in a top-line role, so there's no concern over his usage down the stretch as the Blue Jackets look to stay ahead in the playoff race. The winger is up to 25 goals, 62 points, 162 shots on net, 44 hits and a plus-33 rating over 61 appearances this season.

He now has career-high marks in all of the major scoring categories -- he's at 24 goals, 36 assists and 16 power-play points. He's added 152 shots on net and a plus-34 rating through 56 appearances.

EDGE Analysis

Marchenko missed the Blue Jackets' final three games before the break due to a jaw injury, but he's recorded four points, with two goals and two assists, in his two appearances in his return. In fact, Marchenko has been sensational in recent weeks, and not even the injury could slow him down.

Marchenko provided an assist in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

Marchenko underwent jaw surgery Feb. 3, but he was able to make a fairly quick return despite being labeled out indefinitely at the time. His return will bolster the Blue Jackets' top six and power play moving forward. He'll get to continue building on a career year that has already seen him produce 56 points (16 on the power play), 145 shots on net, 40 hits and a plus-32 rating over 54 appearances.

Marchenko (jaw) has been activated off injured reserve Friday, setting the stage for his return Saturday versus Chicago.

EDGE Analysis

Marchenko has 21 goals and 55 points over 53 appearances with the Blue Jackets in 2024-25. He'll likely serve on Columbus' top line and first power-play unit in his return. James van Riemsdyk will likely shift off the top six and instead serve on the third or fourth line.
