Sportsnet: It’s looking like Columbus Blue Jackets defenseman Seth Jones isn’t interested in signing a contract extension with the team at this point according to Elliotte Friedman. He has one more year on his deal at a $5.4 million salary cap hit,
“We can tell you that sometime in the last week or so, Seth Jones informed the Columbus Blue Jackets that he will not be re-signing.
Now I’m saying for now at this point because I don’t like to deal in absolutes, but it does appear as if he is prepared to test free agency and we’ll see how Columbus decides to handle this over the next little while.
