BLUE JACKETS ADD LETESTU

The Columbus Blue Jackets acquired center Mark Letestu from the Pittsburgh Penguins for a fourth-round draft pick in 2012.

What does it give the Columbus Blue Jackets
The Jackets are a sinking ship, so Letestu won't be able to be a franchise savior at this time. What he will do is win a lot of face-offs. Beyond that, it's anyone's guess as to whether he'll be able to provide Columbus with any offense. Expect this to be just the beginning of the shakeup in Ohio.

What does it give the Pittsburgh Penguins
The Penguins were knee-deep at the center position, so it makes sense to move Letestu at this time. They get a fourth rounder in next June's draft, which would currently be the top pick in the round. So, they got good value for Letestu. Does this mean Sidney Crosby's return from injury is imminent?
