Kuraly scored a goal on three shots and added four hits in Monday's 5-4 loss to the Maple Leafs.

Kuraly got the Blue Jackets on the board at 1:45 of the second period after they fell behind 3-0 through 20 minutes. The 29-year-old is on a modest three-game point streak with a goal and three helpers in that span. Kuraly's still more of a bottom-six grinder than a true scoring threat, but head coach Brad Larsen has given him more significant ice time since the All-Star break. Kuraly has nine tallies, 13 assists, 84 shots on net, 172 hits, 39 PIM and a plus-6 rating in 57 contests.
