Competitive camp is exactly what management wants

The Blue Jackets' 2015 training camp roster features a mix of young, talented prospects, recent NHL breakout players and seasoned veterans.

While their ages, skill levels and playing experiences all vary, every player at camp has one thing in common: they all want to play for the Blue Jackets on Oct. 9.

Blue Jackets GM Jarmo Kekalainen said that this year, more so than in previous years, the competition at camp is what he’s looking forward to the most.

“I think that’s the part that I wait for the most for this training camp is the competition,” Kekalainen said.
