TSN: Jackets trying to bring back Rick Nash?

[213 Sentinel]

I guess seeing #61 on the ice while our playoff hopes continue to slowly die would be pretty nostalgic, now that I think about it....

I would love to have Rick Nash back!!! This is his home, he would be Captain with no pressure this time.... His return would not only motivate our players to play but be fun for the fans!!!!! MGT never thinks about the fans... My money says we make the playoffs with Rick Nash back!!!

Only way I see us with Nash is in a multiple team trade involving JJ. Something where JJ goes to 3rd team, Nash to Columbus, and a 1st goes to Rags. Likely be other sweeteners in there for 3rd team or Rags.
I can't see us giving up a 1st for Nash. Now he has been playing very well lately so I'm assuming someone would be willing to give up a 1st for him.
In my situation we would need a 3rd team looking to solidify it's blue line (and be willing to give up a 1st round pick), we would give up JJ plus maybe a mid-round pick to either 3rd team or Rags, and Rags give up Nash and get a 1st.
Honestly I hated Nash when he was here. Cried his way to Captaincy and had no idea how to lead. I think if he comes in as a complimentary player he can be good addition for what we need. He loved his time in Columbus, so I think he would welcome a return (I could be wrong).

A third round pick.

We shouldn't be out trying to get a rental. Any player we acquire before the deadline should be one that can help long term.

Spot on!

**** Rick Nash, **** him for punching Bob, don't tell me Bob deserved it because he lifted his stick. You never punch the goalie first, that's the rule. The only other player that stepped in on that code was Sean Avery and that says a lot about Nash.

What a joke. Get over it.

What a joke. Get over it.

No i won't, get over Nash.

Depends on the price. I said when we discussed it before we'd probably get the dead cat bounce.

I'm still laughing over the drama around the Bob/Nash mix up. Bob's probably like "What? Oh yeah forgot about that.".

Never liked Nash. Wouldn’t give more than a 3rd.

Never liked Nash. Wouldn’t give more than a 3rd.

Well he’s certainly no Ole-Kristian Tollefsen.

Bob McKenzie just now on NBCSN:

“Absolutely no chance, zero NONE, that Rick Nash will play for an NHL team this season.”

Rick Nash couldn't carry LeBron James' jockstrap

Pretty sure he wouldn't want to
