At least one player has committed to Columbus. The Blue Jackets announced a five-year extension for budding star Oliver Bjorkstrand, signing him through the 2025-26 season. Bjorkstrand will earn $2.5M this season on the final year of a three-year deal signed in 2018 but gets quite the bump in 2021-22. The new deal will carry an average annual value of $5.4M. Blue Jackets GM Jarmo Kekalainen released a statement on his young forward: Oliver is a gifted player that has shown steady improvement throughout career to this point and we couldn’t be happier that he will be a Blue Jacket for a very long time. He is a dangerous offensive player, and we believe he will be an even more impactful player for us as he continues to develop and mature in this league.
