The New Jersey Devils and Columbus Blue Jackets reportedly agreed to a sign-and-trade deal Friday that will send defenseman Damon Severson to Columbus.
According to TSN's Chris Johnston, the move will see Severson sign a new eight-year contract with the Devils before getting shipped to the Blue Jackets.
Severson had been set to be one of the top available players in free agency and arguably the best defenseman on the open market.
