Welcome to Trade Week at The Cannon. We’ll be sharing our ideas for deals that GM Jarmo Kekalainen can pursue to further improve the Columbus Blue Jackets lineup. Some will be bold while others may be more in the realm of practicality. Enjoy!
For my trade proposal, I’m taking a “go big or go home approach.” Strap in.
As we all know, the Blue Jackets are in desperate need of a dynamic, playmaking forward to replace Artemi Panarin. It just so happens that one of them is out there and available: Mitch Marner. He is looking for a big payday and the Toronto Maple Leafs are short on cap space.
