Interesting Info: Part XXII (Jackets-related "tidbits" here)

[Aaaarrgghh]

Will David Jiricek stay in #CBJ ? The talented defenseman is back in the AHL as trade talks heat up with teams like @EdmontonOilers and @PredsNHL circling according to a well-placed source! via @JimBiringer

No idea how valid that source is to be fair. However, Porty did say on his podcast that some calls are going out on Jiricek. He hasn’t requested a trade but maybe a trade resolution could be in the works. Elliotte Friedman also said on a OilersNow appearance that Oilers had eyes on him. Maybe they’re just using that and trying to stir up clicks but …. Find it a little bit interesting.

Even if they were going to trade Jiricek, I don't see what the Oilers have that would even be remotely interesting to the Blue Jackets.

Edit to this: I was told by an oilers fan that other teams were mentioned in the pursuit for Jiricek by EF. Nashville being one of them as well. He also apparently said that Jiricek just wants to play no matter what.

When a source on Twitter claims to be a news organization with "insider sources" but has only about 370 followers, I tend to think it's bullshit.
