As the Columbus Blue Jackets do their best to bounce back this season, all eyes have been on head coach John Tortorella. Many believed that with his poor handling of holding players accountable, that he could be on his way out. Well, it appears, for now at least, he looks to be safe in the grand scheme of things.

In an article written by Greg Wyshynski of ESPN, he confirmed that general manager Jarmo Kekalainen recently gave his vote of confidence that they will stick with Tortorella to right the ship.
