As the NHL offseason continues to unfold, a familiar storyline may be brewing in Columbus. The Blue Jackets' decision to walk away from a summer trade that would have sent Zach Werenski to the New Jersey Devils has left many wondering if the team will revisit the deal in the future. The collapse of the trade, which was reportedly agreed upon but ultimately fell through, has sparked speculation that the Jackets may still be open to moving the star defenseman. With Werenski's contract set to expire after the 2024-25 season, the Blue Jackets may be forced to consider trading him before he hits free agency, potentially revisiting the trade that fell through this summer.
