Blue Jackets' Cole Sillinger: Scores goal in loss to Devils

Sillinger provided a goal in a 4-1 loss to New Jersey on Friday.

Sillinger put Columbus ahead 1-0 just 4:21 into the contest, but the Blue Jackets were unable to build off that lead. The 20-year-old forward snapped his three-game scoring drought. Sillinger has eight goals and 18 points in 40 outings in 2023-24. Those aren't great numbers, but the No. 12 overall pick from the 2021 NHL Draft does still have significant untapped upside, so he shouldn't be dismissed.
