Cam Atkinson will return to the lineup tonight against the Arizona Coyotes after a quick recovery from a fractured foot. The Columbus Blue Jackets have been starving for goals over the last month and Cam’s return should help.
The winger has missed the last 11 games but before that wasn’t having a huge year offensively. Cam was only on pace 15 goals this season, a disappointing showing after his 35 goal season and his new contract. The Jackets need Cam to come back and start potting some goals.
January has been a rough month with injuries for the Jackets and getting Atkinson back is a nice first step.
