I can't see a scenario in which POJ is of any interest to the Jackets, honestly. We've got a ton of blueliners already at that "ready or not, the time is now" stage and adding one more just makes things even more confused. And Texier's been a very useful contributor.
Also, the Preds easily turn that down. Given that the Duchene buyout is getting much nastier next year, cap is only being taken on if a particularly valuable player is coming back.
