As the first long road trip of the season has just gotten under way, the Blue Jackets have run into injury trouble.
Already short defensemen Erik Gudbranson and Denton Mateychuk, the Jackets lost center Sean Monahan to an undisclosed injury last night in Calgary.
His prognosis must not be great, because the team recalled prospect Luca del bel Belluz from the American Hockey League's Cleveland Monsters this morning.
To clear space for him, they have assigned Gudbranson onto the IR list as he continues to miss time with an undisclosed injury of his own (rumored to be a hip problem).
