Blue Jackets ship Nash to Rangers in blockbuster trade


After months of speculation, the Columbus Blue Jackets have finally parted ways with Rick Nash, trading the winger to the New York Rangers in a multi-player deal that has centres Artem Anisimov and Brandon Dubinsky, defenceman Tim Erixon and a first-round pick in 2013 going to Columbus.

WOW! could have sworn he was coming to Vancouver, I'm blindsided by this trade.

me thinks they coulda got a better deal at the trade deadline last year.

Colombus will be way better team with out him. They might even make playoffs. All three guys can play on top three lines. In my opinion Colombus is better off.
Clubs with no money will end up on the bottom of every chart. Teams like Rangers and Phili will scoope them all.
Canucks better do bit more or they will slowley going down.
Canucks Gm did not want to part with young Nick and Kesler and Joslin plus a first rounder. His mistake. No cup in this town for years to come if he does not smarten up.

Erixon is a defenseman, so no, he won't be on the top three lines...
