I read the preview and thought this was a cheeky title.

“Jackets interested in Artemi Panarin”

Yeah no shit.

 

[Esq]

I don’t care if we are in the hunt or not — 100% he should be dealt if the right deal comes along

 

[mikeyp24]

Never going to happen. It just says he thinks he would be a good fit here. We have Wennberg not having a great statistical season and Nash playing terrible both making 5mil a year. Why take on another non offense producing C? Right now we are running Jenner as a 2C and its working actually really f***ing well.

Our top 6 of
Bread PLD Cam
Fligs Jenner Anderson

Is playing fantastic. The top lines skill and speed can keep up with anyone and the 2nd line bangs with the best and has been great at being physical causing TOs and then going off to the races for quick scores.

I love Arty Parties but unless they are taking Nashs contract back it wont happen. And nothing in this article suggests they would do it or have even thought 2 seconds about it.

Meh, their writers aren't really connected...dont see a fit

LeBrun knows his stuff. The original report came from him

 

[HawkeyTalkMan]

This is no surprise. They tried to low ball Chicago for him last year. Figured they might revisit

Blue Jackets have offered little for Artem Anisimov, per report

Last year they didnt have Nash at 5mil

 

[HawkeyTalkMan]

Last year they didnt have Nash at 5mil

Huh?

 

[Xoggz22]

Last year they didnt have Nash at 5mil

Nash isn't at $5M. Not event close. He's at $2.75M

 

[These Are The Days]

The CBJ need to pull the trigger on this if they can

 

[Strangelove]

Great idea, Russians love it in Columbus!

 

[NextYear67]

Anisimov, Brassard, Voracek to CBJ

Are we sure Nash has filed his retirement papers?

How long is the contract why was I thinking 5mil... lol f*** me sorry for the confusion guys no idea why I was thinking 5 unless it was a 2yr deal maybe... hmmmm

The article doesn't even say that...

 

[Prominence]

“It's no clear whether the Blue Jackets are on that approved list, but LeBrun noted that Columbus could be a nice fit for the former center who could immediately jump into a large(r) role on a team that lacks depth in the middle.”

Nope. Also one grammar error.

I think the original report from Lebrun said that the Jackets and Canes had asked about him.

Riley Nash has 2 years left after this at 2.75. Just me, but I wouldn’t be opposed to taking his contract back in the right deal for Anisimov. Something like Nash+2nd+prospect for Arty. Hawks could bank on him rebounding a bit then flipping him after next season. Even if he can’t, I’m confident Bowman could move him to make space for El Gato and Strome after next year.

 

[Empoleon8771]

What is it with the Jackets and being interested in middle-6 centers they've traded in the past?

 

[Columbus Jack]

Every two days there is some BS speculation linking us with some former player we don't need.

 

[Kevin Musto]

Anisimov+ for Wennberg

 

[Toews2Bickell]

Anisimov+ for Wennberg

Thats a lot of term to take on

 

[Kevin Musto]

Thats a lot of term to take on

That's true. Didn't think of that.

 

[clydesdale line]

Anisimov is very good friends with Panarin. I see what you're doing Columbus, it can't hurt.
