The Columbus Blue Jackets are gearing up for a big season in which they will look to snap the second-longest active Stanley Cup Playoff drought in the Eastern Conference, and they may be down a man heading into the regular season after an injury during a preseason game Monday night.

Adam Fantilli is still not at Columbus Blue Jackets ' training camp, as the restricted free agent is without a contract, and the two sides are still battling over what his value should be on a new deal. Certainly, as has been noted, there was a "Before Carlsson" price earlier in the summer — i.e. before the $18M AAV offer sheet for Leo Carlsson — and a much higher "After Carlsson" price . Another potential comp includes the $15M AAV that Connor Bedard signed for on his new deal with the ...

The Zach Werenski situation from earlier in the summer is under control for now, but the Adam Fantilli and Kirill Marchenko problems persist. With the latter, Marchenko still has one year to run on his contract, at a bargain $3.85 million this coming season. But all signs point to him not re-signing in Columbus, and his gathering with the media at camp a couple of days ago did absolutely nothing to calm those f...
