Recent sixth-round picks rarely become available via the trade market, particularly when the rebuilding team is shopping that player around. And yet, that's exactly where the Columbus Blue Jackets find themselves this Black Friday.

NHL insiders are saying a David Jiricek trade could happen soon, but the Blue Jackets are also content to stand pat.

According to MoneyPuck, the Wild are controlling play with a 65.7 percent expected goal rate with his shutdown pair with Jonas Brodin and have only allowed 1.37 expected goals per 60 minutes with Brodin and Spurgeon on the ice. That’s third best in the NHL (minimum 90 minutes).
