Roslovic will be a healthy scratch on Saturday.

Roslovic got off to a great start with the Blue Jackets but has quickly found himself in John Tortorella's doghouse. Roslovic has just one goal and one assist in his last six games and will be scratched in favour of a seventh defenseman on Saturday.

Roslovic will make his Blue Jackets debut on Thursday.

Roslovic did not have to go through the same visa issues as Patrik Laine or the same quarantine, since he never reported to Winnipeg. Roslovic, who had 29 points (12G / 17A) in 71 games last season, will centre a line with Cam Atkinson and Boone Jenner in his debut.

The Blue Jackets have signed Jack Roslovic to a two-year contract worth $1.9M AAV.

Accompanying his trade back to his hometown is a fresh two-year deal for the previously unsigned RFA. Roslovic will have to undergo a mandatory 14-day quarantine following this trade but should make his Blue Jackets debut sometime in early-February.

The Blue Jackets have acquired Jack Roslovic and Patrik Laine from the Jets for Pierre-Luc Dubois and a third-round pick.

Roslovic was an unsigned RFA who had made it clear he didn't want to be in Winnipeg anymore. This deal couldn't have been better for the 23-year-old, who is a native of Columbus, Ohio. The 2015 first-round pick (No.25 overall) registered 67 points (26G / 41A) in 180 career NHL games wth the Jets.

Kempe (upper-body) will be a game-time decision on Tuesday.

The injuries continue to pile up for Arizona as Kempe is doubtful for Tuesday’s game with an upper-body injury that he suffered vs. Dallas on Saturday. Josh Archibald will move to centre if Kempe can’t play.
