There are NHL Trade Rumors starting to circulate that the Columbus Blue Jackets could look at trading defenceman Seth Jones this off-season.
Pierre LeBrun is reporting that Jones might be the No. 1 defenceman available this off-season via a trade. Jones has one-year left on his contract.
LeBrun went on to say, “this is a crossroads off-season for Seth Jones and the Columbus Blue Jackets because of his contract situation. Now, he did raise eyebrows with his comments during his season-ending availability when he talked about not wanting to make any quick decisions and that he has a year left on his deal and he’s going to be around for at least a year.”
Pat Brisson, the agent for Jones, intends to speak to his client by the end of the week to start getting the ball rolling on what they want to do this off-season.
If the Blue Jackets decide to go into a full rebuild mode, you can expect Jones to be traded and get a hefty return.
