Winners and loser on draft night is the favorite game of the pundits and analyst. The Columbus Blue Jackets are the big winners today despite having no 1st round picks to announce last night.
The blockbuster deal between the NHL Draft host city Chicago was a huge win for the franchise. The Jackets added a pure scorer that Jarmo and the front office had dreamed of on the same day as the 2017 NHL Entry Draft held its first round.
Losing Brandon Saad hurts. He was the Jackets best 5v5 player last season.
