  • Blue Jackets youngsters excited for what's to come

    Maybe it's just youthful enthusiasm, but the youngest members of the Blue Jackets look around and see a bright future in Columbus. There's Adam Fantilli, all of 19 and starting to show why he was such a coveted draft pick at No. 3 overall. Prospect analysts around the league have ranked the Blue Jackets' prospect pool as one of the best in the NHL, and it's a group that's been growing over the past few seasons in the hope it blossoms into a contender.

    Cole Sillinger 'took huge strides' for Columbus Blue Jackets in 2023-24

    Cole Sillinger is built like an NHL player in his mid-20s, talks like a player who's been in the league at least that long and has a dad, Mike, who played 1,049 games in the league for 12 teams over 17 years — including two for the Blue Jackets. The younger Sillinger has already logged 220 NHL games since striding into his dad's former locker room with an uncommon confidence for somebody who spent his entire rookie season as the league's youngest player. Sillinger was 18 that season. Sillinger is also a key piece of the Blue Jackets' rebuild, which they began in 2021 by selecting Kent Johnson fifth overall and Sillinger with the 12th pick.
