Got ourselves another deal! 🚨
We've acquired the 121st & 185th picks from Minnesota in exchange for the 112th pick in this year's NHL Draft.
CBJ x @GJPepsi
Thoughts I have, #CBJ
-I see Kirill Marchenko's team using the idea of not wanting to sing back as a bargaining chip for a better contract. (Happened before with other players)
-Why are we all assuming the Werenski meeting is because he wants to leave? I'm thinking promotion...
@_JordanDecker Maybe, but I've read far more stories of a player going to a big city for a larger pay day than staying behind and making his team a winning one for a fair contract. I know which I'd respect and want on my line more.
@iracer18 I'm on the pages of those associated with and paid by the Blue Jackets to report team news, I rarely care or follow those who like to create rumors and drama. Simple as that.
@MittsOfMarinara@JacketsInsider@Aportzline Anything Werenskii would surprise me regarding him departing right now. For those whose job it is to follow this team, I've seen nothing about Marchy. That's why I'm so annoyed about what was said tonight and when.
@MittsOfMarinara@JacketsInsider If @JacketsInsider doesn't post about something, or @Aportzline, I tend to take it with a grain of salt, especially for how the media likes to hate on my team. Pick who you listen to and things are a lot less anxiety inducing. 2/2
@MittsOfMarinara Here's the thing, I believe in this team and if a player chooses to leave, I wish them luck, but we do have players ready to make their presence known in this league. Also, don't believe all you hear. @JacketsInsider has focused on Oscar tonight, as it should be. 1/2
@F1RETHECANNON@TheHockeyNews First, I don't believe this for a second and second this should not have been announced when it was. That was our draft picks moment, not one for speculation on a player who is still with our team.
#CBJ GM Don Waddell said he had some teams call him about the 14th overall pick, but nothing appealing enough to make a move, especially once it appeared the Jackets would be able to select Oscar Hemming.
On a night that should've been about Oscar Hemming being drafted by the @BlueJacketsNHL, @espn managed to make it all about Kirill Marchenko possibly not singing back with a season remaining on his Columbus contract. Rediculous. #NHL#CBJ@NHL
The @BlueJacketsNHL selects a solid, well-spoken, self-aware prospect from Finland. He compared his game to Brady Tkachuk, a 'Physical, skillful player,' on @971thefan with @DylanTyrer and @BobbyMacSports. Welcome to Columbus, Oscar Hemming!
