from Ben Kuzma of the Vancouver Province via the National Post,
The Columbus Blue Jackets are expected to make a play Tuesday for unrestricted free agent centre Brendan Morrison, The Vancouver Province has learned....
The Jackets are rumoured to be offering a three-year deal at about US$8-million and have only US$25-million committed to 2008-09 salaries under the new US$56.7-million cap ceiling.
“Brendan has been one of the more durable and consistent centres in the league and he’s only 32,” said his agent Kurt Overhardt.

Quick question for you, Paul...Why doesn’t anyone bring up the concept that there might just be a little bit of friendly negotiation (or collusion, depending on your point of view) going on in terms of teams “leaking” possible offers for free agents-to-be to the press? The line seems pretty blurry at this time of year…
