Jack Johnson - Returning to Columbus Johnson signed a one-year, $775,000 contract with the Blue Jackets on Tuesday, per PuckPedia.
Impact Johnson had a seven-year stint with the Blue Jackets earlier in his career, which accounted for most of his most successful seasons. At 37 years old, it's unlikely he returns to his former glory on offense. Instead, Johnson will likely serve as a veteran leader for the Blue Jackets' young roster, and he's expected to fill a third-pairing role.

Dylan Gambrell - Receives two-way deal Gambrell signed a one-year, two-way contract with Columbus on Tuesday.
Impact Gambrell generated 14 goals and 36 points in 66 regular-season games for AHL Toronto in 2023-24. The 27-year-old forward has 17 goals and 40 points in 233 career NHL contests. He will probably see most, if not all, of his playing time in the minors in the upcoming campaign.

Cole Clayton - Gets one-year contract Clayton signed a one-year, entry-level contract with the Blue Jackets on Monday.
Impact Clayton had five goals and 20 points in 59 regular-season contests with AHL Cleveland in 2023-24. The 24-year-old is unlikely to play for Columbus next season.

Sean Monahan - Secures five-year deal Monahan signed a five-year, $27.5 million contract with Columbus on Monday, Pierre LeBrun of The Athletic reports.
Impact Monahan will reconnect with former Flames teammate Johnny Gaudreau, the duo having spent nine seasons together in Calgary. The team is currently without a head coach but the new bench boss may look to pair Monahan and Gaudreau together on the top line. Certainly, the 29-year-old Monahan should have a role with the man advantage, likely the top unit, which should help him repeat his 2023-24 numbers (26 goals and 33 assists in 83 regular-season contests).

Jake Bean - Not expected to receive QO Bean (hand) is not expected to get a qualifying offer from Columbus on Sunday, according to PuckPedia.
Impact As a result, Bean will be eligible to test the open market Monday as an unrestricted free agent. The 26-year-old rearguard contributed four goals, nine points, 76 shots on net and 110 blocked shots in 72 games during the 2023-24 campaign. He sat out the final six games of the regular season after suffering a broken hand against the Islanders on April 4. However, he could be healthy before training camps open in the fall, so that shouldn't impact his ability to find a new deal elsewhere.
JUNE 30 • ROTOWIRE
Alex Nylander - Won't receive qualifying offer Nylander is not expected to get a qualifying offer from Columbus on Sunday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Impact Nylander will be eligible for unrestricted free agency Monday. The decision is surprising because the 26-year-old forward was a great fit for the Blue Jackets in 2023-24. Nylander produced 11 goals and 15 points in 23 games after being acquired from Pittsburgh in February.
JUNE 30 • ROTOWIRE
Adam Boqvist - Buyout incoming According to CapFriendly, Boqvist (upper body) was placed on unconditional waivers by Columbus on Sunday for the purpose of a contract buyout.
Impact Boqvist had one more season remaining on his three-year, $7.8 million contract. He recorded one goal and 10 points in 35 appearances during the 2023-24 campaign after providing five markers and 24 points across 46 outings in 2022-23. Boqvist sat out the final 16 games this past campaign due to injury, but his placement on unconditional waivers means he has a clean bill of health ahead of next season.
