After losing yet another player to injury, the Blue Jackets discovered unexpected chemistry in a makeshift top line.

Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger has an upper-body injury that will keep him from playing Saturday at OSU's famed 'Horseshoe' football cathedral.

Yegor Chinakhov returns to the Blue Jackets' lineup after missing 39 games with a back injury, while Sillinger heads to IR with upper-body injury.

Kent Johnson(20), and Kirill Marchenko(24) scored the goals for Columbus, while Daniil Tarasov stopped 29 of 31 Wings shots in the win. It was Daniil Tarasov’s first start since Jan 31.

Van Riemsdyk had two goals in Thursday's 5-2 win over Detroit. Both goals came after Jackets' coach Dean Evason moved van Riemsdyk onto a line with Boone Jenner and Kent Johnson after Cole Sillinger left the game with an upper-body injury in the first period.

Saturday's Stadium Series between the Blue Jackets and Red Wings at Ohio Stadium will be van Riemsdyk's eighth outdoor game.
