Olivier recorded one assist, five hits and nine PIM in Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Flyers.
The Blue Jackets activated Olivier (leg) from injured reserve Saturday.
With excellent size and strength, he loves to play a physical brand of hockey and initiate contact. A scorer in the junior ranks, he has transformed his game to serve more of a depth role as a professional. Can drive the net well, and he does shoot the puck with aplomb (when given enough time to get it off). Is not a great passer, nor does he have the hockey IQ of a true NHL power forward. He will need to master an energy, momentum-changing role in the National Hockey League.
Long Range Potential: Physical winger with some upside.
