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.

Teams are reportedly making pitches for David Jiricek EF reports on Saturday Night headlines.

Looking for comparable young player.

I don't doubt people are asking. That's an easy guess. It's trying to point at specific teams that I find less than credible.

Even if I've watched the game, I always watch the Sportnet recap. Unlike the NHL recap, there are no ads interrupting the highlights.

I noticed something very interesting in the comments recently; Columbus appears to be a very popular team in Russia. Many of the comments are in Russian, I checked other games and there aren't any Russian comments. Makes sense given how many the Jackets have, but thought it was interesting
