The front office for the Columbus Blue Jackets has, as they said they would, come to terms with John Tortorella ahead of training camp. The head coach, whose contract was set to expire at the end of this season, has agreed to a two year extension ensuring he will stay in the Arch City through 2021.
Just six days ago the organization came to terms with President of Hockey Operations John Davidson as well as General Manager Jarmo Kekalainen and Associate General Manager Bill Zito. Their contract extensions were the first steps toward locking up Tortorella.
