Jarmo’s plan for rebuilding the Columbus Blue Jackets - and likely his last chance to construct a contender here

The Columbus Blue Jackets have begun a rebuild in earnest for the first time in franchise history. The team is closing the book on the most successful run in franchise history, albeit one that saw the team advance to the conference semifinals just once in their run. Familiar faces have left in the last six months - Pierre- Luc Dubios lasted four games into last season, captain Nick Foligno and veteran David Savard were moved out at the trade deadline, Seth Jones and Cam Atkinson were draft weekend departures. Head coach John Tortorella left at the end of last season.
