The Legein Trade

Paul posted earlier about the trade between Philly and the Jackets. Stefan Legein was sent to the Flyers for d-man, Michael Ratchuk.

Stefan has always been one of my favorite prospects, yeah, even with the “retirement” and everything. Here’s the thing though, while I am sad that I won’t get to see Legein in a Blue Jackets jersey, I am so happy for him. This is his chance to get a new start. He will be in an entirely new environment, with new teammates. Teammates that he didn’t let down, teammates who (in theory) won’t judge him for what happened while he was a Blue Jacket.

He gets to start over and I wish him nothing but the best.

But, what about that new guy?

The Columbus Kids

The kids are taking over. This team has been getting draft picks galore since joining the league, and now, it’s paying off. It all starts in net.

Pascal Leclaire - Steve Mason - Pazzy earned his spot last season, but this season has been all about Steve Mason. Mason who is leading the league in GAA (1.80) and shutouts (6), is playing like a veteran. He has settled the team down, and has been dependenable. Mason is doing what Pascal Leclaire did last season - only better. I know there is a lot of talk about trading Pazzy but unless it is for a big name center, I don’t see a point. We obviously don’t have the goaltender depth that we need, and it would hurt us more than help.

Legein Update and More

Jackets play tomorrow in Detroit, and I am beginning to feel good about it. That has to mean something right?

Still no word on the meeting with Legein today, perhaps we will find more out tomorrow. Here’s the update from Lindsay Kramer on Legein.

There it goes.

The four game winless streak is finished. I’m not too thrilled with the game last night. There was not a bit of rythym to it, and well, if there was, I didn’t see it.

There weren’t very many positives from the game. Four power play goals and one short-handed goal were allowed last night. On a good note, Steve Mason was not at fault for most of the goals, blame the defense who offered him no help.

Kings, Legein, and Liveblog

The Jackets are playing the Kings tonight, Mason is in net for the Blue Jackets, and Quick is in net again for the Kings. I found it interesting that Hitchcock wanted to shake things up with the goaltender and put Leclaire in, but that’s just me. Mason is riding a shutout and is obviously the hot goaltender and you have to go with that.

Legein Set to Return!

Earlier this year, Stefan Legein quit hockey. I found out via an e-mail, and I was absolutely heart broken. Legein was one of my favorite prospects and it was absolutely devastating. Now, Legein has decided to come back.

‘’I am planning to go to Columbus at the beginning of January and from there I hope to be going to Syracuse (of the American League),’’ Legein told TSN. ‘’That’s the plan. I am looking forward to it. It’s time.’’
