Kendrick 4,741 Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 http://www.tsn.ca/blue-jackets-trade-f-johansen-to-predators-for-d-jones-1.419159 Not so surprising to see Johansen traded as it was public knowledge that he wasn't happy with his contract in Columbus. Seth Jones gets swapped for him which helps Columbus. I think it's a good trade for both teams as Nashville has a good blueline and always finds solid bodies for it. Nashville does get a legit #1/#2 centerman to add to their lineup. Discuss: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devise 4,475 Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Like, ideal trade for both teams given their needs and where the player (Johansen) was at in Columbus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gregreg 930 Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Nashville is really looking to take that next step and this trade helps them move in that direction. Good move for Nashville and CBJ gets a very good asset in return Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kesler 1,514 Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Is it just me or is this not as good for Columbus as it is for Nashville? Nashville has a stacked d core so moving a young future top pairing guy makes sense for a number 1 centermen in Johansen who is something they desperately need. But seriously Columbus needs a lot and I dont think adding Jones makes them any better today. Good return but I dont really like it for Columbus.

Getting a player like Jones back for a player who was unhappy is great for Columbus. A much better version of the Carter-Johnson trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd agree with you, but that point is irrelevant if teams weren't going to trade their offensive pieces and Johansen was not falling in love with contract talks.

This is very true. As a hockey fan I am looking at everything and would say Columbus needs some huge help on offense now. But none the less very good return.

Yeah not to mention Foligno is kind of what I thought (another Chris Kunitz) and Hartnell is being scratched. They have some young pieces but they are 2-3 years away from developing into full-time scorers in the NHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOOM 8,738 Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Finally some NHL news that is relevant to me. Jones is on my fantasy roster, so it's nice to see some discussion that involves a name I've actually heard of! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pavel_Ovechkin 0 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Rob Mixer @RobMixer 4h4 hours ago Multi-point games tonight for Kerby Rychel (goal, assist) and Seth Jones (two assists). Jones a +8 in SAT at 5-on-5 so far. Jones has 4 points in 6 games with Columbus. Seth Jones SA60 is at just under 24, compared to players between 650-750 minutes played (Jones is right around 700 after tonight), he's out playing Tanev, Larsson, Hedman, Ekbald, Shattenkirk, ME Vlasic, Duncan Keith (etc) (unless i was reading the stat wrong and the higher number is worse) now he was playing sheltered minutes in Nashville, but his numbers in Columbus are even better. Columbus might have won the trade now and in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
