Zherdev is available. :p

no way. haiti will freeze over before that one happens. id expect 1-2m player, one with 15-20 goal potential.

Sucks too, I thought Huselius would've been the ideal linemate for Nash and Carter.

actually jake would have been the best. but oh well. i wouldnt be surprised to see carter get some time at rw
nash/brass/carter.
when brass is healthy he can wheel and deal. nash is underrated at passing and can score. carter has a nasty, sick wrister. nash and carter both can and have scored a ton of rebound/garbage goals with their size, style, skill, hands and ability to play a greasy style when need be.


who knows, but their are a decent amount of veteran wingers available, and a crop of reclamation projects available, or soon to be available (a la wolski-but no way he is traded for with a 4m price tag, but if bought out i can see him taking a 1.Xm deal, he fits that mold and is a natural lw [though honestly nash is a better lw than rw, but can play both])

The Jackets have a really nice group of forwards if everyone can stay healthy. This team still needs a #1 dman, but they're close to being very, very good imo.

Prospal and Carter can both play center or wing on the top two lines. Gives the Jackets lots of options.

COLUMBUS, OHIO – The Columbus Blue Jackets have signed defenseman Fedor Tyutin to a six-year contract extension, club Executive Vice President of Hockey Operations and General Manager Scott Howson announced today. As is club policy, terms were not disclosed.

Tyutin, 28, has registered 37 goals and 122 assists for 159 points with 321 penalty minutes in 492 career games with Columbus and the New York Rangers during his seven NHL seasons. He has collected 22-71-93 and 162 penalty minutes in 242 career games with the Blue Jackets, ranking second in club history among defensemen in goals, assists and points and fourth in games played.

“Fedor has been our top defenseman since we acquired him from the New York Rangers in 2008,” said Howson. “We are very pleased get him signed to this long-term deal.”

The Rangers’ second pick, 40th overall, in the 2001 Entry Draft, Tyutin (pronounced TYOO-tihn) tallied 7-20-27 and 32 penalty minutes in 80 games with Columbus in 2010-11. He led club defensemen in goals, assists and points and topped all players in time on ice average (22:41) for the third-straight season. Acquired by the Blue Jackets along with Christian Backman from the Rangers in exchange for Nikolai Zherdev and Dan Fritsche on July 2, 2008, he set career highs in goals (nine) and points (34) in 82 games during the 2008-09 season.

The Izhevsk, Russia native played one season of junior hockey with the Guelph Storm of the Ontario Hockey League and two in the Russian Elite League before splitting the 2003-04 season between New York and its American Hockey League affiliate in Hartford. After spending the 2004-05 campaign with Hartford and St. Petersburg (Russia), he played his first full season in the NHL in 2006-07 and notched 2-12-14 and 44 penalty minutes in 66 games.

Tyutin has represented Russia in numerous international competitions, including the 2006 and 2010 Winter Olympic Games. He has captured gold medals playing for Russia at the 2008 World Championships as well as the 2002 and 2003 World Junior Championships.

A pair of incidents from a Blue Jackets-Wild preseason game last week have resulted in suspensions and fines for players from both teams.

Blue Jackets defenseman James Wisniewski was suspended for the rest of the preseason and for eight regular-season games for a check he delivered to the head of Wild forward Cal Clutterbuck as the third period of Friday's game ended.

Wild forward Brad Staubitz was also suspended for the rest of the preseason and the first three regular-season games for an illegal check on Columbus' Cody Bass from behind during the game. Bass was injured when Staubitz hit him and sent him into the glass.
