Blue Jackets make Scott Hartnell a healthy scratch for Game 4

Columbus Blue Jackets left wing Scott Hartnell will be a healthy scratch Tuesday in Game 4 against the Pittsburgh Penguins.

What It Means:

A bit of a surprise but Hartnell has not recorded a point in the series, and the Blue Jackets are desperately trying to avoid the sweep. The 35-year-old winger will have to celebrate his birthday on the bench.

Hartnell scored 13 goals with 24 assists for 37 points and a plus-14 plus/minus this season. He recorded a 52.9 Corsi For Percentage and 3.2 Relative Corsi For Percentage at Even Strength.
