The Columbus Blue Jackets have placed All-Star defenseman Seth Jones on Injured Reserve, recalled defenseman Gabriel Carlsson from the American Hockey League's Cleveland Monsters and added center Liam Foudy to the roster on emergency recall from the Ontario Hockey League's London Knights, club General Manager Jarmo Kekalainen announced today.
Jones, 25, will be sidelined indefinitely due to an ankle injury suffered in Saturday's game vs. the Colorado Avalanche. The three-time All-Star has collected six goals and 24 assists for 30 points with 20 penalty minutes and a +10 plus/minus rating in 56 games this season, while leading the club and ranking sixth in the NHL in time on ice per game (25:17). The Arlington, Texas native has tallied 60-198-258 and 168 penalty minutes in 524 career games with the Blue Jackets and Nashville Predators. Selected with the fourth overall pick by Nashville in the 2013 NHL Draft, Jones has notched 45-150-195 and 114 penalty minutes in 325 games since joining the Blue Jackets during the 20015-16 campaign.
