The Columbus Blue Jackets own the fourth overall draft pick in the 2024 NHL Entry Draft.

This is the fourth time in organization history the team will be selecting with the fourth overall draft selection in the NHL Entry Draft.

Previous selections by the club include Ryan Johansen, Nikolai Zherdev, and Rostislev Kesla.


BREAKING — Canada cut Macklin Celberini and Adam Fantilli to add Pierre-Luc Dubois, Nic Paul, and Brandon Hagel to the roster.

After being snubbed from the Calder Trophy and being a pre-tournament cut to the 2024 World Hockey Championship, this sets up the 2023 top draft pick for the Columbus Blue Jackets to potentially have a 2024-2025 regular season revenge tour against the league.

Fantilli also was skating and in attendance for his best friend’s debut, prospect Gavin Brindley. This could also be a motivating factor to have your support system around as well.

The top center of the future in Ohio has not played an NHL game since January 28 on the Northwestern road trip against the Seattle Kraken.

If the 2023 draft is already making waves, imagine how the 2024 draft will be…

Reaction to that will be coming here tonight at 8pm EST after it has occurred.

Breaking news is coming!

We will see if they slide up or down, what are your predictions?
