Rotowire
Christiansen was reassigned to AHL Cleveland on Wednesday.
Christiansen's demotion to the minors is a little surprising considering the Jackets will be back in action Thursday and Friday against Pittsburgh and Buffalo and there aren't any AHL games between now and then.

Blue Jackets' Jake Christiansen: Misses practice Thursday
Rotowire
Christansen (undisclosed) missed practice Thursday and is questionable to play versus Boston, Brian Hedger of The Columbus Dispatch reports.
Adam Boqvist (undisclosed) also missed practice and coach Brad Larsen hopes that at least one can play Thursday. The Blue Jackets recalled Marcus Bjork on an emergency basis, so at least there will be five healthy defensemen if Christiansen and Boqvist are both unable to play. Christiansen has three assists in 20 NHL games this season.

Blue Jackets' Jake Christiansen: Demoted to minors
Rotowire
Christiansen was reassigned to AHL Cleveland on Thursday.
Christiansen has logged just eight games for the Jackets this season in which he averaged a meager 9:46 of ice time. By shuffling the 22-year-old defenseman back to the minors, he should see significantly more minutes with the Monsters. Given Columbus' depth at defense, Christiansen may be hard-pressed to secure a place on the 23-man roster heading into the 2022-23 campaign.
