This tweet came out before we knew what the return was for Duchene. All that tells us is that this isn't a backdoor sign-and-trade like the Turris deal was.

And that's assuming it's accurate, which, well, Kypreos.

Hopefully the Jackets can win that first playoff round.

Can't wait to see Duchene sign with the Habs on July 1st.

Carolina has been in front of them for all of 1 day and only because they have 2 games in hand.

I'm not saying it's not close - but even before this trade it's Columbus as the more likely playoff team than Car. My guess is CB in CAR out.

Bolstering for a run with two (now maybe three) elite players that have made it clear they'll be walking this off-season when you're not even a top team in your conference.

Seems like terrible asset management to me. Enjoy the endless mediocrity Columbus!

What if Panarin and Bob leave.
