Missing season finale
Christiansen (upper body) won't play in Thursday's game versus the Islanders, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Christiansen will be out for the fourth straight game to end the season. The 25-year-old occasionally was a scratch this year as well, though he managed to play in 68 games. He earned eight points, 58 shots on net, 50 hits and 65 blocked shots. Christiansen signed a two-year contract in January to stay with Columbus, so he'll be part of the plans on defense for a while longer.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Christiansen impressed with AHL Cleveland last season, providing 13 goals and 46 points across 62 regular-season contests. He was limited to two assists in 12 games with Columbus, but he averaged just 13:13 of ice time in that span. The 24-year-old has the potential to secure a regular third-pairing spot with the Blue Jackets this season, and while he's not one of the more promising prospects out there, Christiansen might be able to exceed the 20-point mark under ideal circumstances. He also has the potential to be a decent source of hits and blocks, which adds a bit of versatility to his fantasy profile.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Going to arbitration
Christiansen has elected for arbitration, per PuckPedia.
ANALYSIS
Christiansen has totaled one goal and seven points in 44 NHL games over the last three seasons. The 2023-24 campaign was his most successful with AHL Cleveland; he scored 13 goals and 46 points in 62 games before tallying another goal in the AHL postseason. The 24-year-old blueliner should compete for a bottom-six role with the Blue Jackets in training camp.
