In the 2015-2016 season of blight and despair, Boone Jenner was a rare bright spot, scoring 30 goals and 49 assists. It seemed as though the Columbus Blue Jackets 2011 second-round pick had blossomed into what everyone had hoped he could be.
But last season was the inverse of the 2015 campaign. He was one of the few players that struggled relatively to an amazing team that finished fourth in the NHL. Boone was tenth on the team in scoring that did see some breakout players. But he was far from the 30-goal performance we saw and wanted to get used to.
