My buddy was sitting beside an executive from the Blue Jackets this morning on a flight to E=NG. Had some conversations and got some insights. These were things that stood out to my buddy during their conversation:
- Said they were interested in Lindholm earlier in the season, didn't give much info on right now
- Was also interested in Monahan but felt it it was too risky with his injuries
- Says there are concerns in the organization about Laine being injury prone and every time he takes a hit they all hold their breaths
- Scouts aren't too big on Hanifin because of his physicality and unwillingness to go into the corners
- Said Conroy is really trying to make deals but no GMs are wanting to make trades at the moment
With this I'm not going to be surprised if we don't make any deals with Columbus.
