Could Anthony Duclair be headed to Columbus?
The free-agent winger has held discussions with the Blue Jackets, his agent confirmed to Aaron Portzline of The Athletic. However, Columbus is one of a few teams in the mix for the young forward.
Philippe Lecavalier, Duclair's agent, told Portzline that a deal could get done by Monday.
Duclair began last season with the Arizona Coyotes prior to a January trade that sent him to the Chicago Blackhawks. He finished the year with 11 goals and 12 assists in 56 games. The 22-year-old became an unrestricted free agent after the Blackhawks declined to extend him a qualifying offer.
