Fabbro (hand) was activated from injured reserve Tuesday.
After missing the first nine games of the 2026-27 campaign with a broken hand, Fabbro is poised to make his season debut against Philadelphia on Tuesday. He earned five goals, 11 points, 68 shots on net, 120 blocked shots and 65 hits in 74 appearances for the Blue Jackets during the 2025-26 regular season.

Fabbro (hand) could return to action for Tuesday's game against Philadelphia, Brian Hedger of The Columbus Dispatch reports.
Fabbro participated in Monday's practice session, but the Blue Jackets will reassess the 28-year-old defenseman Tuesday morning to determine whether he's ready to suit up against the Flyers. Fabbro has been trending in the right direction recently after missing the start of the regular season due to a hand injury. It's unclear whether he'll face any limitations if he's able to suit up Tuesday.

Fabbro (hand) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Golden Knights, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.
Head coach Rick Bowness said Wednesday that Fabbro was close to returning to game action, but the defenseman will be on the shelf for at least one more matchup. While Bowness said Friday that Fabbro isn't yet ready to return, it's not yet clear whether the 28-year-old will be in the mix to suit up Tuesday against Philadelphia.

Head coach Rick Bowness said Wednesday that Fabbro (hand) is close to returning to game action, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.
Fabbro has been on injured reserve since the start of the regular season due to a hand injury that was expected to force him to miss at least a month. He's expected to skate Thursday and Friday before the team determines his status for Saturday's matchup against the Golden Knights. If the 28-year-old remains out against Vegas, Bowness said that the goal is for Fabbro to return for Tuesday's game in Philadelphia.

Fabbro (upper body) is expected to miss at least a month, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports Sunday.
Fabbro was placed on injured reserve Friday due to an upper-body injury he sustained during Monday's preseason game against the Red Wings. It's not yet clear whether Damon Severson (shoulder) will be ready for Opening Night, but the Blue Jackets are in the process of trying to sign Carson Soucy after he spent camp with the team on a professional tryout agreement.

Fabbro (upper body) was placed on injured reserve by the Blue Jackets on Friday.
Fabbro sustained an upper-body injury during Monday's preseason game against the Red Wings, and the Blue Jackets indicated Wednesday that he could be in danger of missing Opening Night against the Sabres on Oct. 1. It appears as though the defenseman be sidelined for the start of the regular season after landing on injured reserve, and it's not yet clear when the team expects him to return, but the Blue Jackets could be shorthanded on their blue line since Damon Severson's (shoulder) status is uncertain ahead of Opening Night.
