Captain Call-Up: MacKenzie Headed Back to Columbus

Syracuse Crunch captain Derek MacKenzie is expected to suit up for the Columbus Blue Jackets tonight when they visit Vancouver.  The Jackets recalled the 28-year-old center after Raffi Torres fell ill yesterday.

From The Post-Standard's Lindsay Kramer:

MacKenzie, 28, has appeared in 20 games for the Crunch this season, tallying five goals, 11 assists and 14 penalty minutes. He has also skated in 16 games with Columbus this year, collecting four points.

There is still a chance that MacKenzie could be sent back down to Syracuse before the Crunch play again on Friday night in Norfolk.
