NHL Trade Deadline: Columbus Blue Jackets

Filed under: Blue Jackets, Trade Deadline

The Blue Jackets are in the same position as a number of teams in the West. One minute they're out of contention, the next they are right in the thick of things. Coming off a 2009-10 season that saw them struggle along in the 14th spot, the Blue Jackets have had one of those inconsistent years that coaches dread -- the good thing being the club is starting to show some grit at the right time.

Fifty-nine games into the NHL season, the Jackets are in the 12th spot but a scant two points out of the coveted postseason berth. As always, they are powered by Rick Nash (right) and RJ Umberger. They don't have enviable cap space available, but there is room to add someone to make a last-ditch push.
