Sam Gagner was signed by the Columbus Blue Jackets last summer on a one year “prove it” deal worth $650,000. Gagner has bounced around the league after never living up to his billing as the 6th overall pick in the 2007 NHL Entry Draft. Gagner himself understood his chance with the Blue Jackets to perhaps be his last one to stick in the league permanently.
