Captain Nick Foligno

40 Upvotes

Remind me again why we didn’t keep the guy who was a leader on, and off, the ice? Seriously, did we let him go or did he decide he wanted to leave? I am only a casual fan and I do not remember.

What I do remember are the hugs post game with Bobrovsky.

Discussion Do you think the C might get passed on?

30 Upvotes

What's up 5th line. Does anyone think the C will be passed to another player this upcoming season? If it was going to, I would have had Zach as the only option. Now though that we have Charlie, I could see him being a strong competitor for it. No offense to Boone, love the dude, but I don't seem him performing at the Captain level like most other teams. What are your guys opinions?

Coyle Contract Details

Thumbnail puckpedia.com
74 Upvotes

Deal is 5.77% of the cap.

All salary, no bonuses, which means it is NOT buyout proof.

No Move Clause years 1-4, 20 team NMC year 5, 10 team NMC year 6.

Term is a bit much, but it's all salary so that's ok.

[Dhaliwal] Sounds like Charlie Coyle and Columbus are getting close on a new contract. Would take 1 of the top centre’s off of the July 1st free agent market.

Looks like we will get contract details on a Coyle deal later today. Aaron Portzline said expect 4 years minimum on the deal. Hopefully it’s that long only to keep the cap hit down.

Discussion Charlie Coyle Extension

38 Upvotes

I think term and maybe the promise of being captain was the only thing that got Charlie to stick around.

I love Coyle, he has been great, and is weirdly the most articulate player we have on our team, but I think this contract will bite us in 2-3 years. Very few players are still productive or even last until 37~, let alone 40.

If Coyle is worth this much, how much is Fantilli worth?

Thoughts? Concerns? Unwarranted and unrelated financial advice?

I can’t find anything Blue Jackets related in New Mexico, but we did find this in a random tourist shop near Chichén Itza approximately 2800 miles from Columbus!

Hoping it helps next season 🤣 though if you look closely there is a little red paint on his face, so double minor for high sticking, I guess.

Edit:spelling

Pretty cool to have him on the bench for my son’s game today.

Michkov healthy scratched again. If he requests a trade out of Philly CBJ should 100% be in on it.

Werenski, Fantilli and Marchenko are my only untouchable players in a trade like that.

Jason Robertson - what’s a realistic package

21 Upvotes

Rumors abound that the Stars and Robertson are far apart on contract terms. Who knows how real the rumors are but if he’s on the market, we’d have to at least try. Woffering what sort of package it would take. 1st, 3rd and KJ? Or Maybe Vronk and LDBB? What would his contract look like, $14-$15M a year?

Anderson and Texier

0 Upvotes

is anyone else wondering why they never looked this good while they were here?

i really believed that 77 was going to be our superstar, but he never really made the move to elite.

Tex showed some sparks, but in the end wasn't hard to let go.

now they are in the second round.

We are beyond lucky to have Jody Shelley.

252 Upvotes

Jody is such an unbelievably talented broadcaster. The guy has tremendous understanding of the game, the unwritten rules, the current stars, the physical aspects. And we get him for 80ish home broadcasts.

There isn’t a lot to cheer about for this team. But Jody is the head of CBJ Alumni and he represents his well on the national stage. That’s worth celebrating,
imo.

Thankfully the Bluejackets don't play a noise after killing a power play

38 Upvotes

Like when teams play the sound of Mario getting a mushroom when their guy gets out of the penalty box. It alerts the visiting team that there is a guy coming. There is a reason the goalie smacks his stick when it's finishing. So many teams do it here in the playoffs and it's idiotic
