Latest On Adam Fantilli Revealed, Days Ahead Of Blue Jackets Training Camp

The Jackets were ready to do business with a "Before Carlsson" price, but are now looking at an "After Carlsson" price.  Of course, he's referring to the bombshell $18M AAV offer sheet that Leo Carlsson signed for with the Philadelphia Flyers (and was matched by the Anaheim Ducks).&nbsp...

Zach Werenski Expects Trade Rumors To Heat Up Again

Zach Werenski's trade saga went quiet in July.  The reasons it started in the first place never actually disappeared.
