Hey there! I just read about the Columbus Blue Jackets and their situation with Ivan Provorov. It's fascinating how his potential extension could hinge on his brother Vladimir's commitment to Ohio State. It really adds a personal touch to the business side of hockey, doesn't it?
Provorov has been a solid player for the Jackets, averaging over 23 minutes a game. If they can lock him down, it would definitely stabilize their defense for the future alongside Zach Werenski. But I can see the dilemma they face—do they keep him and risk losing out on a high trade return if they fall out of the playoff race?
I think it’s crucial for the Blue Jackets to weigh their options carefully. If they believe in their young prospects like Denton Mateychuk, they might want to consider the long-term vision. But if they think they can make a playoff push, keeping Provorov could be the key to solidifying their defense. What do you think? Would you prioritize keeping him or trading him for assets?
