Team: 2020-21 Columbus Blue Jackets

Initial Creation Date: Feb. 13, 2020

Published: Feb. 15, 2020

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Toronto gets a Savard. A right handed shot defenseman who has some offensive upside but is a shutdown defensively and can eat minutes. They also get Josh Anderson and Texier to help replace Nylander. This for Toronto will alleviate cap issues and gives them a young controllable asset in Texier and a 1st round pick.
The Jackets get Nylander who can help be the driving force offensively for a team that desperately needs game breaking offense. Kerfoot give the Jackets a center option that, like Nylander, is signed long term.

Ottawa gives up a couple of picks they acquired last year at the deadline from Columbus to get a young center that is signed long term and could benefit from a change of scenery. If Wennberg rediscovers his play from seasons back this could be a steal for Ottawa.

The Jackets get their 2nd round picks back and will try to restock the pipeline.

Winnipeg takes a low risk gamble on Murray. In giving up Roslovic, they get a chance to improve their defense. Columbus eats a chunk of Murray's contract to help Winnipeg and any cap issues they might have trying to improve defensively. Milano comes over as well as a low cost replacement for Roslovic.

Columbus gets Roslovic. A young center who will get to go home to play for the team he rooted for growing up. It also gives the Jackets more center depth.

Nashville gets Joonas Korpisalo. Nashville has been a mess at goaltender. Pekka has gotten older and Saros has not been the answer. Korpisalo has proven to be a competent goaltender and is ready to be a starter at the NHL level. But with the goaltender depth in Columbus he may not get his shot there.

Columbus get a pick and a prospect to continue their restocking of their farm system.
