Mark it down folks. The first and only time I’ve ever been wrong. About Vitaly Abramov. Making the Columbus Blue Jackets squad. In 2018.
Ok, so I missed a little on my prediction that Abramov would start of the year with the team but after observing training camp it wasn’t that crazy of an idea.
Yes, Vitaly was cut on September 24th and sent down to the AHL but it isn’t the end of the world for the forward. Nor should it be the end of the hype around Abramov’s future. It was clear from training camp that Abramov needs a year in the AHL and that was going to be needed whether he was 100% healthy or not.
