10 players the Blue Jackets should consider at No. 4 overall

Tij Iginla is blessed with elite NHL bloodline. Better yet, he’s a little piece of the old block, bringing goals and a bit of physicality that’s reminiscent of his old man.

The problem here is that I don’t think he’ll become a center in the NHL. The Blue Jackets should look to add to the middle – if not the back – with this year’s first-round pick. They are loaded with talent on the wings, with plenty of youngsters already on the NHL roster.

So if you’re going to add a winger, it better be a guy who can come in and make a difference quickly. Tij is probably a few years away, and even then I just don’t see much room on the wings for the Jackets.

Why they should take it: Iginla is an excellent scorer, with high-end timing and shooting abilities.

Why they should avoid it: There will be better players on the board in positions of greater need.
