As the calendar year comes to an end, and we've seen the ups and downs of our beloved Jackets, we're starting to see our weaknesses. The trade deadline is February 28. Just two months away that will surely fly by. Through yesterday, we're sitting in 12th place, but only 6 points out of 4th. Another tight conference gives us hope for the rest of the year. With games against the Maple Leafs, Senators, Preds and 'Yotes, 6 out of 8 points would go a long way.

It might be early, but its always fun to talk trades. So for now, let this be a place to make deals, argue, and support others. Have fun with it!

A few days ago, PomeroyCBJFan had this to say. I read a story from Puck Daddy recently about Dallas, and Richards' possible future with the team. The same thing ran through my head. Bring him to Columbus. So, props for bringing it up, Pomeroy!

I think he'd be a great addition to the team. No doubt about it. But, this post isn't just for coming up with ways to get Richards to Columbus, throw out any ideas you got. Anything that can make this team better, and get them back into the playoffs.

Fire Away!
