The Columbus Blue Jackets will check with their pending UFAs, and what they is perhaps searching for
Aaron Portzline of The Athletic: The Columbus Blue Jackets will use the Olympic break to check with pending UFA forwards Boone Jenner, Charlie Coyle, Mason Marchment and defenseman Erik Gudbranson and see if any contract extensions might be worked out. It will be a lift to the room if any might be re-signed, but when talks break down, they may resolve to carry to them on the trade deadline.
GM Don Waddell might be seeking to add a scoring forward with term on the deadline to reward this team after they clawed their way back into the playoff race. Perhaps Waddell looks so as to add forward depth in former Blue Jackets captain Nick Foligno, who might be traded by the Chicago Blackhawks.
Teams that might be interested by Vincent Trocheck, and what they’ve which may interest the Recent York Rangers
Peter Baugh and Vincent Z. Mercogliano of The Athletic: The longer term of Vincent Trocheck in a Recent York Ranger jersey is unknown. He’s got three years left at a $5.625 million cap hit and is their best trade asset on the deadline. The Rangers could opt to attend until the offseason or resolve not to maneuver him in any respect.
