  • Blue Jackets' Zach Aston-Reese: Pots goal Thursday

    Aston-Reese scored a goal on two shots and blocked two shots in Thursday's 3-2 win over the Sabres.

    After going 57 games without a goal earlier in the season, the 30-year-old has two tallies across his last four contests. Aston-Reese is holding onto a fourth-line spot to close out 2024-25, so don't expect much offense out of him. He's matched his career high of 17 points from 2018-19 while adding 100 shots on net, 174 hits, 56 blocked shots and a minus-15 rating over 76 appearances in 2024-25.

  • Blue Jackets' Zach Aston-Reese: Rare goal in loss

    Aston-Reese scored a goal on two shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 7-3 loss to the Avalanche.

    Aston-Reese ended a 57-game goal drought with his second-period tally. He had just eight assists in that span, so while he's been a regular in the Blue Jackets' lineup for much of the season, he's not a player who will help much in fantasy. He's just a point off his career high of 17 from the 2018-19 campaign, having earned five goals, 11 assists, 96 shots on net, 169 hits, 54 blocked shots and a minus-16 rating over 73 appearances in 2024-25.

  • Blue Jackets' Zach Aston-Reese: Contributes helper in loss

    Aston-Reese posted an assist, two shots on goal and two hits in Monday's 2-1 loss to the Devils.

    Aston-Reese snapped a six-game point drought by helping out on Mathieu Olivier's third-period tally. The 30-year-old Aston-Reese continues to see steady bottom-six minutes, offering a bit of physicality in the Blue Jackets' lineup. He's at 15 points, 87 shots on net, 158 hits, 48 blocked shots and a minus-11 rating over 66 appearances. He could challenge his career-best output of 17 points from the 2018-19 campaign with the Penguins.

  • Blue Jackets' Zach Aston-Reese: Puts up assist

    Aston-Reese notched an assist, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 5-3 Stadium Series win over the Red Wings.

    Aston-Reese has three helpers over his last five games, which is great compared to the 22-game point drought that preceded this stretch. The 30-year-old forward is three points shy of the career-best 17 he had in 2018-19 with the Penguins. He's earned four goals, 10 assists, 75 shots on net, 137 hits and 42 blocked shots while filling a bottom-six role over 59 appearances in 2024-25.

  • Blue Jackets' Zach Aston-Reese: Contributes helper in loss

    Aston-Reese notched an assist and six hits in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers.

    The helper was Aston-Reese's first point since Dec. 19 versus the Devils. In that time, he signed a one-year contract extension to stay with the Blue Jackets for 2025-26. The 30-year-old has had effective moments in a depth role, but a 22-game point drought is enough to keep him off the fantasy radar. He's managed 12 points, 70 shots on net, 127 hits, 40 blocked shots and a minus-10 rating through 55 appearances, mainly serving in a bottom-six role this season.

  • Blue Jackets' Zach Aston-Reese: Ready to play against Flyers

    Aston-Reese (upper body) will be in the lineup versus Philadelphia on Tuesday, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.

    Aston-Reese was injured against the Blues on Saturday but seems no worse for the wear and will remain in the lineup for Tuesday's tilt. Despite being mired in a 10-game pointless streak and 27-game goal drought, the Jackets' penned the 30-year-old winger to a one-year contract extension Monday, so clearly they aren't concerned about his offensive production.

  • Blue Jackets' Zach Aston-Reese: Re-ups with club

    Aston-Reese (upper body) agreed to terms on a one-year, $775,000 contract extension with Columbus on Monday.

    Aston-Reese was forced to leave Saturday's matchup with the Blues early due to an upper-body injury but seems to be trending in the right direction. On the year, the 30-year-old center has managed four goals, seven helpers and 56 shots while averaging 13:09 of ice time over 42 appearances. With a new deal in hand, Aston-Reese won't have to worry about free agency this offseason.

  • Blue Jackets' Zach Aston-Reese: Departs Saturday's game

    Aston-Reese sustained an upper-body injury and won't return to Saturday's game versus the Blues.

    It's unclear how Aston-Reese was initially injured, but he did not play in the third period. The 30-year-old forward has not registered a point in his last 10 games. If he can't play Tuesday versus the Flyers, the Blue Jackets may call up a forward or roll with 11 forwards and seven defensemen.

    Aston-Reese logged an assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Devils.

    Aston-Reese has three helpers over his last eight contests. The 30-year-old doesn't stand out in many ways, but he's been steady enough to play on the third line for much of the campaign. He's now at 11 points, 48 shots on net, 76 hits, 24 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over 32 appearances.

The 30-year-old Aston-Reese didn't spend any time in the penalty box before Friday's game and isn't known for racking up PIM. He's added nine points, 41 shots on net and 57 hits over 25 contests in a bottom-six role.

  • Blue Jackets' Zach Aston-Reese: Nabs assist in loss

    Aston-Reese had an assist, four shots on net, one block and four hits in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to Montreal.

    Aston-Reese was credited with a secondary assist, when he sent Zach Werenski and Mathieu Olivier on a two-on-two rush that produced the game's first goal. He usually sees fourth-line minutes, but Cole Sillinger's upper-body injury shook up the combinations, which included Aston-Reese skating on the third line and contributed to a season-high 15:57 TOI.

  • Blue Jackets' Zach Aston-Reese: Tallies again Friday

    Aston-Reese scored a goal on four shots, added two hits and went plus-2 in Friday's 6-2 win over the Penguins.

    Aston-Reese scored against one of his former teams, striking at 2:20 of the first period. He's tallied in back-to-back games and is up to four goals, three assists, 24 shots on net and 32 hits through 15 contests overall. The 30-year-old continues to play in a fourth-line role, but he's been able to see fairly consistent playing time. As he long as he sticks in the lineup, he is poised to reach the 20-point mark for the first time in his career.

  • Blue Jackets' Zach Aston-Reese: One of each in loss

    Aston-Reese scored a goal on three shots, dished an assist, logged six hits, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Kraken.

    Aston-Reese picked up his first points in three games since he was a healthy scratch last Tuesday versus the Sharks. The 30-year-old forward continues to play on the fourth line, but fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to frequently repeat his effort from this game. He has three goals, three assists, 20 shots on net, 30 hits and an even plus-minus rating over 14 contests.

  • Blue Jackets' Zach Aston-Reese: Dishes helper

    Aston-Reese registered an assist during Saturday's 7-2 loss to the Capitals.

    Aston-Reese ended a three-game point drought with the helper and has posted a respectable two goals and four points in 11 appearances while averaging 11:15 of ice time skating on Columbus' fourth line. The 30-year-old winger has always been a useful role player in his NHL career, but a lack of top-six minutes limits his overall fantasy upside.

  • Blue Jackets' Zach Aston-Reese: Deposits goal

    Aston-Reese scored a goal on three shots and added four hits in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Predators.

    Aston-Reese has earned all three of his points this season over the last four games. The 30-year-old has seen a larger role lately, as the absences of Kent Johnson (shoulder), Boone Jenner (shoulder) and Dmitri Voronkov (upper body) have opened some playing time. Aston-Reese is filling a third-line role with three points, 11 shots on net, 14 hits and a plus-2 rating over seven appearances.

  • Blue Jackets' Zach Aston-Reese: Scores first goal with new team

    Aston-Reese scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Sabres.

    Aston-Reese has played in all four games for the Blue Jackets this season, adding six shots on net, four hits, three blocked shots and a plus-2 rating. The 30-year-old forward had a brush with an upper-body injury, but he was able to avoid missing further action. The Blue Jackets are already missing four of their regular forwards, so Aston-Reese should be able to stick in the lineup moving forward, and he could even ascend to a middle-six role after starting the campaign on the fourth line.

  • Blue Jackets' Zach Aston-Reese: Set to play Tuesday

    Aston-Reese (upper body) is expected to suit up in Tuesday's clash with the Panthers, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.

    Aston-Reese's status was up in the air after he was forced to leave Saturday's clash with the Avalanche after less than a minute of ice time, but he appears no worse for the wear. Still, the 30-year-old center is unlikely to see a ton of ice time, he played just 7:33 in the season opener versus Minnesota, so fantasy players probably shouldn't be expecting a lot of offensive production.

  • Blue Jackets' Zach Aston-Reese: Skating Monday

    Aston-Reese (upper body) took part in Monday's practice session, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.

    Aston-Reese's return to practice would seem to be a strong indicator that he will be ready to go for Tuesday's matchup with the Panthers. Even if the winger suits up, it'll likely be in a bottom-six role that is unlikely to come with a ton of offensive opportunities for the 30-year-old Staten Island native.

  • Blue Jackets' Zach Aston-Reese: Exits with upper-body injury

    Aston-Reese (upper body) won't return to Saturday's game versus the Avalanche.

    Aston-Reese was injured on a high hit during his first shift of the game. The 30-year-old forward opened 2024-25 in a fourth-line role for the Blue Jackets after being plucked off waivers from Vegas on Monday. If he can't play Tuesday versus the Panthers, Dylan Gambrell could enter the lineup in his place.
