What It Means:

This will be his first game missed this season. Foligno was hurt during Saturday's game against the Philadelphia Flyers. As usual with hockey, not much is known about the injury, but due to the Christmas break, following Monday's game Columbus doesn't play again until Saturday. This will give Foligno ample time to recover.

Foligno has 19 points (5 goals, 14 assists), which is tied for 5th most on Columbus, in 35 games played. We project him to increase his scoring significantly over the remaining course of the season, posting an additional 38 points (14 goals, 24 assists).
