The Columbus Blue Jackets will have to continue their playoff push without forward Kirill Marchenko, who is out indefinitely after having surgery to repair a broken jaw, the team announced Monday. The Blue Jackets’ scoring leader with 21 goals was placed on injured reserve. Columbus entered play Monday holding the Eastern Conference’s eighth and final playoff spot despite also missing veteran forwards Boone Jenner (shoulder) and Sean Monahan (wrist).
