The Columbus Blue Jackets may be ready to part with one of their top young players.

Ryan Johansen is "softly in play" on the trade market, Darren Dreger reports on TSN's "Insider Trading."

"That doesn't mean that Jarmo Kekalainen, the general manager of the Blue Jackets, is calling teams and saying, 'What are you going to give me?' However, when teams call, he's not dismissing the interest," Dreger said. "He is saying, 'What's your offer?' So what that tells you is there's at least some interest in considering the trade of Ryan Johansen."

Dreger adds that if the right deal comes along, the Blue Jackets will consider it.

Johansen has four goals and 12 assists in 20 games this season, but was recently demoted to the fourth line in Sunday's loss to the San Jose Sharks.


The 23-year-old forward has two years remaining on his contract with an annual cap hit of $4 million.

Columbus is sitting 29th in the NHL with a record of 8-14-0 and 16 points

I just noticed Calamari's avatar is back. Has it been two weeks since Getzlaf's legendary no look drop pass?

Our long national nightmare is over, yes.

I would give my left nut for Johansen.

Stars defense at work. *conk*

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I would give my left nut for Johansen.

I was thinking about the Sens when I read that article.

Turris, maybe a prospect for Johansen?

Fuck no you high.

 

[Quick]

Are they getting rid of Johansen because of Torts? God damn.

Hope Lou at least called Jarmo about it.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Fuck no you high.

Babby then? I'm just shooting the shit CB.

Are they getting rid of Johansen because of Torts? God damn.

Kadri for Johansen.

That's 4th liner Ryan Johanson to you.

7th scratched dman Ryan Murray will get traded too.

 

[zroid]

is Torts seriously scratching Murray, wtf...

 

[Cake Boss]

I can't contain all these icings.

 

[FUBAR McDangles]

I wonder if Jarmo would want a nice Finnish center to build around.

Mikael Granlund might be a good option. Reliable. Talented. Young. Untapped potential.

A Granlund + Spurgeon (as a start) for Johansen deal would probably make me shit my pants in glee.

 

[shadowkat]

so what is everyone doing for Thanksgiving?

That was a month ago

 

[Silexx]

Sens need to stop trying to clown the Stars on the PP.

Edit: Michalek still remembers how to score!

 

[megachao24]

Turnovers is killing the Stars this period.

 

[Cake Boss]

HOLY MILAN MICHALEK

 

[Silexx]

Would have been hilarious had Karlsson scored there.

 

[megachao24]

Holy shit, an actual save at the end of the period.

 

[kingslunk]

Stars shitting the bed

 

[Coldnoodle]

Hank vs Price has always been a Goaltending duel.

It's a Modern Day Hasek and Brodeur duel

Roy am cry.

Dave Poulin with some Mr Burns Isotopes level coaching here with these drawings.

 

[Cake Boss]

Only Boroshit gets a penalty on an oddman rush.

 

[megachao24]

SHARPIE!!!

 

[Kave_Man]

.

I'd give Cake Boss's left nut for Johansen.

 

[Cake Boss]

Too much skill on Dickllas. Every rush is a scoring chance, its like an all star team.

 

[Silexx]

Hmm, Lazar getting some time with the 2nd line.

That didn't work out 2 weeks ago, why would it work right now.

 

[Silexx]

[Cake Boss]

HAPPPY BIRTHDAY 4TH LINER MIKE HOFFMAN!!!!

 

[megachao24]

Lol he's fucking 9-1 mang.

He's made of butter. I don't know how many times the offense bailed his ass out.

 

[kingslunk]

Thing this game is over. We've thrown up 3 in a period before but man if we don't start skating in our own zone were fucked.

 

[Red_Man]

For the past two seasons, and now probably this one as well, yes. Before that? Not so much. Jesus Price is a relatively new thing still, comparatively. And I say this as a huge believer that he is likely the next top goalie in the league.

He already is the top goalie in the league

 

[megachao24]

Klingberg almost killed Lehtonen.

Niemi is back.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Lehtonen got bodied by Klingberg

 

[Calamari41]

Boy, what a wasted season.

 

[imBask]

Klingberg almost killed Lehtonen.

Niemi is back.

Lehtonen got bodied by Klingberg

somewhere, Pikma is having an erection

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I'm so fucking glad Segween isn't a Bruin anymore


Thank you Dallas.


Benn and Seguin are the best duo in the league,Hands down.
