“I’ve heard some rumors,” Gavrikov said. “I prefer to live in the present because you never know, in the future, what’s going to happen. So, I don’t have to worry about it right now. I’m just trying to win every game and take of the opportunity in front of me, and try to help my team to win. That’s about it.”The Dispatch has confirmed recent reports about the Blue Jackets exploring trade scenarios involving him and that opposing teams are cleared to meet with Gavrikov and/or agent Dan Milstein.
“He’s a guy we rely on heavily,” Blue Jackets coach Brad Larsen said. “The more games you have under your belt, it means you’re lasting when you’re tackling 20-plus minutes a night, penalty-kill and he’s even had a little bit of power play this year.”
