The winger has a goal and two assists over his last three contests to find a bit more stability on offense after an inconsistent January.

Marchenko scored a goal and added an assist Saturday in a 7-4 loss to Seattle. - He wired a slap shot past Joey Daccord early in the second period. It was his 14th snipe of the season, but first in his last 10 games (one assist). Marchenko burst on the Columbus scene last year with 21 goals in just 59 games, but his minus-23 required an antacid. He's made improvements in his two-way play (plus-5 in 41 games). But Marchenko needs to be a bit more consistent in his offense to offer fantasy managers value in any league other than the deepest single-year formats. |

Marchenko scored a goal on two shots in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Hurricanes. - The game was scoreless after two periods, but it took Marchenko just 13 seconds into the third to change that. The 23-year-old has been productive this month with six goals and three assists over 13 contests -- it's earned him a spot alongside Johnny Gaudreau and Boone Jenner on the top line for now. With the Blue Jackets struggling to generate momentum, Marchenko will have to continue playing well to stay in the top six. The 23-year-old winger has six tallies, six helpers, 56 shots on net, 15 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating over 20 appearances this season. |

Marchenko scored his first goal of the season in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Lightning. - The 23-year-old winger, who had been a healthy scratch the prior two contests, opened the scoring early in the first period by snapping a quick shot past Matt Tomkins from the faceoff circle to the goalie's right.

| Oct. 12, 2023 |
Marchenko recorded two assists in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Flyers. - His rush from the Columbus end helped set up Jake Bean for the team's opening goal of the season midway through the first period, and Marchenko then fed Patrik Laine for the Jackets' only other tally of the night with less than a minute left in the third. Marchenko racked up 21 goals -- a rookie record for the club -- but only four helpers last season in 59 games, so it's encouraging to see him provide more balanced production right out of the gate in 2023-24. The 23-year-old is currently skating on a line with Adam Fantilli, the third overall pick in this year's draft and the team's new franchise cornerstone, and if Marchenko can continue to establish chemistry with his 19-year-old center, he could blow past preseason expectations for his sophomore campaign. |

Marchenko scored a goal on four shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Kings. - Marchenko had the Blue Jackets' only goal against Pheonix Copley, scoring at 4:31 of the third period.

Marchenko scored two goals in Saturday's 6-5 win over the Oilers. - The rookie continues to be the purest sniper in the league this season. Marchenko has an impressive 16 goals through his first 36 NHL games, but he's added only one helper to his ledger. The 22-year-old did have eight goals and 11 assists in 16 AHL games this year prior to his promotion, so his scoring should eventually balance itself out a bit, but for now Marchenko appears to be taking full advantage of an assignment alongside playmaking winger Johnny Gaudreau. |

Marchenko scored a goal and an assist in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Maple Leafs. - Both points came in the second period as Marchenko kick-started the Blue Jackets' comeback from a 2-0 deficit. The helper was his first of the season, but the 22-year-old has an impressive 14 goals in his first 30 NHL games. That puts him second among rookies behind Matty Beniers' 17, and the Seattle freshman has played 20 more games this season. As long as Marchenko continues to skate on Columbus' top line with Johnny Gaudreau, he could well keep lighting the lamp on a regular basis. |

Marchenko scored two power-play goals in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Canucks. - Marchenko continues to enjoy the Blue Jackets' current road trip -- he has four tallies over his last three games, and three of them have come on the power play.

Marchenko scored a goal on two shots in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Oilers. - Marchenko tied the game with a third-period tally. He's scored in the back-to-back outings after going six games without a point. The 22-year-old winger's 11 goals and zero assists in 25 contests represent a stat line not seen for a rookie since 1926-27, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports. As long as he's scoring Marchenko could have some fantasy appeal, but managers would probably prefer to see him round out his play. |

Marchenko netted a goal in Columbus' 5-2 loss to Chicago on Friday. - Marchenko's marker came at 13:48 of the second period and was scored with the man advantage. It was his fourth goal and point in 10 games this season. The 22-year-old entered the contest averaging just 12:22 of ice time, but 1:43 of that was with the man advantage. Marchenko's unlikely to maintain his current goal scoring pace, but his role on the power play will continue to help his overall offensive production. |

Marchenko scored his second NHL goal in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Lightning. - He got Columbus on the board early in the second period, taking a slick cross-ice feed from Cole Sillinger and wiring the puck past Brian Elliott, but it was all the offense the Blue Jackets could muster.

Marchenko found the back of the net in Sunday's 6-5 overtime win against the Kings. - Marchenko got the scoring started at 6:44 of the first period. It was his first NHL goal and point in his fourth contest. He's done great in the AHL this season, recording eight markers and 19 points in 16 games. However, the 22-year-old logged just 11:08 of ice time Sunday, and he entered the game averaging 12:11 with Columbus.

Marchenko didn't record a point but produced two shots, two hits and a blocked shot in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Penguins. - Making his NHL debut, the 22-year-old didn't get to see much ice time in a chippy game that had one team or the other on the power play for much of the night. Marchenko skated on a "kid" line with Cole Sillinger and Yegor Chinakhov, and while the trio all have bright futures, they could have trouble making a fantasy impact in the short term. Marchenko, a second-round pick in the 2018 NHL Draft, is actually the oldest of the three, and after racking up eight goals and 19 points in 16 games for AHL Cleveland to begin the season in his first action outside of the KHL, he appears more than ready for a regular spot in the NHL. |

Marchenko has three goals and an assist through his first two games with AHL Cleveland. - The 22-year-old was caught in a roster crunch during training camp after coming over from Russia in the offseason and didn't make the initial NHL roster, but Marchenko is doing his best to get the Blue Jackets to re-think that decision. With Patrik Laine (elbow) already sidelined and Columbus off to an 0-3 start to the season, it may not be long before Marchenko is called up to make his Jackets debut, and potentially provide the offense with a jolt. |

Marchenko was demoted to AHL Cleveland on Wednesday. - Marchenko is making the jump to North America after having previously played exclusively in the KHL. Unfortunately for the 22-year-old winger, it appears he will have to at least begin the year in the minors before getting a chance to compete at the NHL level. |
