Zach Werenski feels comfortable returning to Columbus next season. Blue Jackets and Werenski release statements
Darren Dreger: It sounds like Columbus Blue Jackets GM Don Waddell spoke to Zach Werensky and his agent, Judd Moldaver, in an attempt to clear the air and calm things down.
Werenski is fine and comfortable returning to Columbus next season.
Waddel could approach Werenski with a trade at some point, but it doesn’t look like that’s on the radar at the moment.
