Don Waddell and the Columbus Blue Jackets are going to run it back with the same defensemen they did last year, but is that a good idea? It's not necessarily a bad thing to try in my opinion.

Dante Fabbro agrees to a new contract with the Blue Jackets after re-igniting his NHL career as Zach Werenski's defensive partner.

Columbus Blue Jackets defenseman Dante Fabbro signed a four-year, $16.5 million contract Sunday. Fabbro, 27, was a pending unrestricted free agent. He recorded 26 points (nine goals, 17 assists) and a plus-20 rating in 68 games last season split between the Nashville Predators and Blue Jackets.
