:CLS: COLUMBUS BLUE JACKETS

Background:
After finishing 11th in year 1, the Blue Jackets dropped to 20th 2011-12. At the start of the strike shortened 2012-13 season the team's third year in the league, a new owner looked to change the team's performance but alas could not and ended up finishing 24th.

This year:
Columbus owns two star players in Joe Thornton, Rick Nash with whom they can build around as well as perennial future starter Steve Mason in goal. The MiLR is well stocked with blue chippers Bo Horvat, Matt Hackett, Morgan Rielly, Oscar Klefbom to name a few prospects.

Strengths:
MiLR
Young potential starting goalie

Weaknesses:
Lack of depth on Defense
A number of large contracts

Needs:
New owner
Depth at all Forward positions
Depth on Defense

Future Outlook:
Columbus Blue Jackets are another example of a team with a high number of former owners that have left their mark but have not yielded high performers from drafts and trades to date yet appear ready to be elevated to contender status with a new competitive owner making savvy moves. The team owns enough assets to finish top 16 this season.

I think the fact this team starts Steve Mason in net made them attractive to me.
Most of the roster wasn't all that interesting to me but they do the job.

The other great thing about this Columbus BJ's team aside from allowing me to have fun with their initials is they (we) own a killer farm system that's really well stocked for the next few years.

Good job past owners.   :winner:

Now let's see if I can take them over the hump to the promiseland.  :win:

:disco:

Bishop's Bolts teammates sure do like hitting him.
Not the first time a teammate hurt him.

My Flames approve of this injury update! Ha ha

As it turns out Lindback also got hurt last night and is out longer. Caught a break there. Bish out 1 game only. Lindy out until late February. Didn't mean for that to happen JD but better to you than me. LOL

Let's get confirmation that Max will be going to free agency 100 percent. If that is confirmed I will approve. Boys don't take it personal when I speak up I think both of you are great GM's.

Ripper

If someone doesn't make me an interesting offer before the guy's contract expires my Hawks will let him walk to FA.
He's purely an expensive rental. LOL

    Today at 12:07:45 AM
  • STLBlues91: Im just looking at the draft prospects this and next year figuring out my plan
    Today at 12:08:08 AM
  • STLBlues91: Im ready for that expansion draft
    Today at 12:08:19 AM
  • Daddy: Yeah so about that. One team get first pick in the expansion draft. The other gets first pick in the amateur draft.
    Today at 12:10:24 AM
  • STLBlues91: Yeah figured that was how it would be
    Today at 12:11:15 AM
  • Daddy: I could flip a coin but nobody but me would see it. So a number has been selected between 1-32. You are both getting pms along with the two other mods.
    Today at 12:12:09 AM
  • STLBlues91: Sounds good. When you thinking this will occur
    Today at 12:12:41 AM
  • Daddy: Whomever guesses closer to the number gets the 1st overall pick in the amateur draft. The other picks first in expansion.
    Today at 12:13:04 AM
  • Daddy: Im getting it out the way tomorrow
    Today at 12:13:49 AM
  • Daddy: Ive got the tools now to build the matrix and the league.

  • STLBlues91: Sounds good, I will be thinking of a solid number
    Today at 12:15:05 AM
  • Daddy: Best get to building it.
    Today at 12:15:32 AM
  • Daddy: Honestly idk why the NBA doesn't do it that way for expanding. Two teams at a time. Expansion draft to amateur draft. I think the idea is fresh and its execution will be pretty dope. ;)
    Today at 12:25:15 AM
  • jimw: I think the NBA goes one team at a time to give the one team a better talent pool in the expansion draft and also to keep the teams from complaining about losing more players
    Today at 01:25:47 AM
  • Daddy: Thats fair
    Today at 01:27:48 AM
  • BayAreaBallers: that makes sense
    Today at 01:32:38 AM
  • Daddy: I mean they only losing one guy anyway tho. We expose 10 players, protect 5 players, each team, all 30 will lose one player.
    Today at 01:36:30 AM
  • Daddy: The expansion teams will then both have 15 players heading into the amateur draft with picks #1 & #2.
    Today at 01:37:43 AM
  • Daddy: Each other team will still have 14 players and one first round pick.
    Today at 01:38:26 AM
  • Daddy: They need to hire me is what they need to do :rofl:
    Today at 01:38:53 AM
  • Daddy: Yeah you lose a guy to the expansion draft. Likely your 6th man. Then the very next day you draft his replacement and keep it moving.
    Today at 01:40:25 AM
  • STLBlues91: Daddy quick question in your messages
    Today at 01:44:14 AM
  • Daddy: We are good to go.:toth:
    Today at 02:01:09 AM
  • jimw: I think in the Bobcat expansion each team could protect 8 players. And I think the bobcats has to take at least 14 so half the league didn't even lose a player.
