It’s almost October, maybe one of the best months of the year! For selfish reasons, it’s my birthday month, the MLB playoffs will get underway, and soon, the NHL off-season headlined by the draft and free-agency. Yeah, the latter part of that is weird but this has been a weird year. Let’s get weird right?
The Blue Jackets’ needs are point-blank and obvious. Offense, offense, offense! Those needs probably have a better chance of being met via the draft, or trade-market, than they do via free agency. I’m sure Jarmo Keklainen does something but doubtful to expect the Taylor Hall - to - Alex Pietrangelo type.
