Fantasy Analysis
It's his first goal in four games since returning from a foot injury. James Wisniewski has four goals and 11 points in 19 games on the season, and with Marian Gaborik giving a jolt of adrenaline to the Jackets' offense Wisniewski could be worth targeting if he's available and you need blue line help.

04/09/2013 22:03 Blue Jackets blank Sharks, Bobrovsky registers shutout
Sergei Bobrovsky picked up his fourth career shutout -- all in his last 15 games -- and newcomer Marian Gaborik had a goal and an assist Tuesday night, leading the Columbus Blue Jackets to a 4-0 win over the San Jose Sharks.
On a point-per-game basis, James Wisniewski almost lived up to his big free agent billing, scoring at a pace that would have seen him finish with 10 goals and 46 points over 82 games, but, between a suspension to start the season, a broken ankle and a concussion (along with lesser bumps and bruises) he managed to suit up for just 48 games. Heading into 2012-2013 he's got a top spot on the power play next to Jack Johnson sewn up, but also a cast of forwards in front of him sorely lacking in proven goal scorers to bang home the rebounds from his big shot. Don't expect more than about 40 points as a result, and another dreadful plus-minus. (Updated 8/14/12)
