Last week NHL insider and Sportsnet reporter Elliott's Friedman reported that former Bruins star Phil Kessel is linked to sign a PTO with a new team in order to continue his career.
Honestly, Kyle, I wondered if there was any chance that Phil Kessel may end up there (Blue Jackets). Just simply because, and I think this is a serious season for Columbus. They were disappointed last year. They want to show some improvement, but I kind of wonder about a guy like Kessel simply because he's got the reputation of being someone who really lightens the mood and just creates a lot of enjoyment when he's around."
Blue Jackets GM Don Waddell told The Athletic's Aaron Portzline that he wanted to add to the club's forward core. Shortly after, he signed former Bruins forward James van Riemsdyk to a one-year, $900,000 contract, Waddell could be stealing from the bruins once again and sign Phil Kessel.
