Tim Berni - Headed home to EuropeBerni is expected to play in Switzerland this season, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports.

ImpactThe 23-year-old blueliner failed in his bid to make the Blue Jackets' roster in training camp, and rather than head to AHL Cleveland, Berni will return home to play in the Swiss National League -- he played 146 games for Zurich SC between 2017-18 and 2020-21 prior to coming over to North America. Columbus will still retain his NHL rights as a restricted free agent.

Stefan Matteau - Released from PTOMatteau was released from his PTO by the Blue Jackets on Friday, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports.

ImpactThe 29-year-old winger last played in the NHL for one game with Colorado to open the 2021-22 season, and he spent two seasons in the Columbus system before that, but Matteau's attempt to win a roster spot in camp fell short. He could still sign a minor-league deal and remain with the Jackets at AHL Cleveland.

Hunter McKown - Cut from campMcKown was sent down to AHL Cleveland on Friday, per CapFriendly.

ImpactMcKown's quest for a roster spot with the Blue Jackets came up short, as their offseason additions gave them more forward depth. The 21-year-old could still earn a call-up if he starts the season well with the Monsters.

Jet Greaves - Sent down FridayGreaves was reassigned to AHL Columbus on Friday, per CapFriendly.

ImpactGreaves lost out to Spencer Martin in competition to be backup to Elvis Merzlikins while Daniil Tarasov (knee) is out. The 22-year-old Greaves should play regularly with Columbus. Given the Blue Jackets' luck with keeping goalies healthy in recent years, Greaves may get some NHL time later in the season.
