The news of the day comes from Columbus, OH, where there is a new general manager. Scott Howson was canned after five plus seasons, overseeing one brief playoff run and many decisions that were largely duds, including the Jeff Carter trade last year and the Rick Nash debacle. When John Davidson stepped down from his role as president of hockey operations with the St. Louis Blues to take a similar role with the Blue Jackets, it was only a matter of time...and a poor start away. The expected replacement is Jarmo Kekalainen, who worked under Davidson while in St. Louis, and had returned to Finland to take the role of General Manager with Jokerit. A press conference is expected to announce this decision.
