Sillinger produced a goal and an assist in Tuesday's 7-2 rout of the Avalanche.
The 23-year-old forward did a little bit of everything Tuesday, adding two shots on net, two PIM, one blocked shot, one hit and a plus-3 rating to his ledger while winning three of four faceoffs. Sillinger may finally be putting together a breakout campaign after making his NHL debut back as a teenager in 2021-22, piling up four goals and eight points through the first 13 games of 2026-27.

Sillinger scored a goal, added two hits and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 7-3 loss to the Panthers.
Sillinger has scored in consecutive games. He's up to three goals, two assists, nine shots on net, eight hits, four blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over five appearances. While he's playing on the third line, head coach Rick Bowness has had no trouble giving Sillinger enough ice time to remain productive even without a power-play role.

Sillinger scored a goal, added two hits and blocked two shots in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Blues.
Sillinger tallied for the second time in four games this season. He's added two assists, eight shots on net, six hits and a plus-2 rating. The 23-year-old forward is filling a middle-six role on a checking line with Charlie Coyle and Mathieu Olivier, which has often looked like Columbus' most consistent trio so far. If this is a breakout year in the making, Sillinger looks to be a good speculative addition to fantasy rosters while his offense is hot.

Sillinger logged two assists, two shots on goal and three hits in Friday's 3-2 shootout win over the Penguins.
Sillinger helped out on goals by Damon Severson and Mathieu Olivier. The 23-year-old Sillinger is doing well in a third-line role to start the season, earning one goal, two assists, seven shots on net, four PIM, four hits and a plus-2 rating over three contests. A first-round pick from 2021, Sillinger has yet to have a breakout campaign, but he offers decent depth scoring with a physical edge.

Sillinger scored a goal on three shots, added four PIM and went plus-2 in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Sabres.
Sillinger tied the game at 1-1 with his first-period tally. The 23-year-old forward saw work on the third line but didn't feature on the power play, which is a trend that continues from last year. Despite the lack of time with the man advantage, he's been largely consistent during his NHL years, posting between 31 and 33 points in four of his five seasons. If he can get a hot start going, he could move up in the lineup.

Sillinger signed a three-year, $13.875 million contract with the Blue Jackets on Friday, per Aaron Portzline of The Athletic.
Sillinger and Columbus were headed toward an arbitration hearing, but that's no longer necessary. The 23-year-old Sillinger had eight goals, 33 points, 37 PIM and 112 hits in 81 regular-season appearances with the Blue Jackets in 2025-26. He's finished with 31-33 points in four of his first five regular seasons in the NHL. He has some untapped offensive upside, so perhaps he'll be able to surpass his career high of 33 points in 2026-27.
