Arvidsson has missed four weeks with a lower-body injury but is expected to play against the Bruins on Saturday. Arvidsson has six goals and nine assists (15 points) in 22 games this season.

Peeke had a Mike Green slap-shot ramp up his stick and off of his hand during Tuesday's win in Detroit and he broke his finger on the play. Peeke will be out until mid-to-late January and Gabriel Carlsson was recalled from Cleveland to take his spot on the roster.

Peeke suffered a hand injury Tuesday in Detroit and will come out of the lineup vs. the Kings. Scott Harrington will draw into the Blue Jackets lineup to replace Peeke, who is listed as day-to-day.

Korpisalo gave up three goals on 21 shots in the Blue Jackets' win in Detroit on Tuesday. It wasn't his best outing but it was enough to earn the victory and move him to 3-0-2 with a 1.69 GAA, .943 SV% and one shutout in his last five games. Now they return home, where Korpisalo has gone 9-8-1 with a 2.53 GAA, .905 SV% and two shutouts this season.

Korpisalo stopped all 30 shots that he faced in the Blue Jackets' shutout win over the Capitals last night. With Elvis Merzlikins struggling and a very winnable game on-tap, Korpisalo will start on back-to-back nights. He allowed four goals on 26 shots in a win in his first start vs. the Red Wings and is 2-0-2 with a 1.34 GAA and .958 SV% in his last four starts.

Korpisalo allowed two goals on 19 shots after replacing Elvis Merzlikins in the Blue Jackets' overtime loss in Ottawa on Saturday. Korpisalo's last three outings have all been strong, as he's posted a .944 SV% but has lost two of three. The win came against the Capitals, who he'll face again tonight--last Monday he stopped 37 of 39 in a 5-2 victory.



Thatcher Demko is out indefinitely with a concussion, so DiPietro comes up from Utica to serve as Jacob Markstrom's backup on Thursday. With a back-to-back coming up this weekend, Demko could make his season debut in San Jose (Sat) or Vegas (Sun). He is 8-4-1 with a 2.56 GAA and .910 SV% with Utica this season.

Korpisalo allowed two goals on 39 shots in the Blue Jackets' win in Washington on Monday. It was an outstanding outing for Korpisalo, who will make his 24th start of the season on Thursday. In his first start against the Penguins, Korpisalo stopped 29 of 31 shots in a 5-2 win in late-November.

DiPietro came up while Jacob Markstrom was away from the team. Markstrom returned over the weekend, so DiPietro heads back to the AHL, where he is 7-4-1 with a 2.44 GAA and .913 SV% in 13 games this season.

Korpisalo allowed three goals on 19 shots in the Blue Jackets' loss to the Rangers last Thursday. Since his four-game winning streak was snapped, Korpisalo has lost three of his last four games while posting a 2.80 GAA and .889 SV%. Things could get worse on Monday. The Capitals have won six in a row while scoring 4.00 goals per game, so Korpisalo is a low-end option to start the week.

Peeke has posted five goals and seven assists (12 points) in 21 games with Cleveland (AHL) this season and was called-up after Zach Werenski suffered a shoulder injury. He is expected to make his NHL debut on the third-pair with Vladislav Gavrikov as his partner.


Korpisalo allowed two goals on 31 shots in the Blue Jackets win over the Penguins on Friday. Elvis Merzlikins started Saturday, so Korpisalo comes into Tuesday's game playing great and well-rested. Korpisalo has won five of his last six starts while posting a 2.16 GAA, .920 SV% and one shutout. Tonight he takes on a Coyotes team that has lost four of their last six (2-2-2) while scoring just 2.33 goals per game.

Peeke, 21, was a second-round pick (No.34 overall) in 2016 and turned pro this year after three years at Notre Dame. The 6-foot-3, 198 lbs. defenseman has 12 points (5G / 7A) in 21 AHL games this year and could make his NHL debut with Zach Werenski out for at least one month.

DiPietro has gone 7-4-1 with a 2.44 GAA and .913 SV% in his first 13 AHL starts this year. The 20-year-old, former third-round pick has received his first call-up of the season because Jacob Markstrom has been granted a leave of absence to go to Sweden for his father's memorial service. DiPietro likely won't play a game but should serve as Thatcher Demko's backup on Tuesday.


Korpisalo stopped all 25 shots that he faced in the Blue Jackets shutout win over the Senators on Monday. Korpisalo is red-hot right now, winning four in a row while stopping 102 of the 110 shots (.927 SV%) that he faced. In his first start against the Flyers, Korpisalo surrendered six goals on 45 shots in a 7-4 loss (Oct.26).
