    Belarus Hockey is reporting that Moscow CSKA is interested in signing former Blue Jackets forward Kevin Labanc. 

    Labanc played in 34 games for Columbus after signing a one-year contract with Columbus just before the start of last season. Unfortunately, Labanc suffered a shoulder injury in late February that required surgery, ending his season. 

    He scored 2 goals and totaled 12 points in 34 games. 

    Should Labanc join Moscow CSKA, he'll join a slew of former Jackets and future Jackets. Currently on the roster are prospects Nikolai Makarov, Kirill Dolzhenkov, and Pyotr Andreyanov. Former Jackets Spencer Martin and Cole Cassels, as well as another former prospect, Vitaly Abramov, are also on the team. 

    THN Columbus will keep you updated on the movement of all former Jackets.
