The Columbus Blue Jackets dropped another road game on Thursday night when they fell 4-3 to the New York Islanders in regulation. The result isn’t a surprise, which is a shame, but the highlight of the game no matter the score was prospect Sonny Milano‘s NHL debut.
Called up from the AHL’s Lake Erie Monsters on Wednesday, Milano took to the ice on the second line with Alexander Wennberg and Brandon Saad. In 13:26 TOI over 17 shifts (none of which was special teams play), Milano was 0-0-0 and -1 with one shot on goal, one missed shot, a give-away, two hits and no PIM.
