General managers of the Columbus Blue Jackets

1 Doug MacLean February 11, 1998 – April 19, 2007 No playoff appearances

– Jim Clark (Interim) April 19, 2007 – June 15, 2007

2 Scott Howson June 15, 2007 – February 12, 2013 1 playoff appearance

3 Jarmo Kekäläinen February 13, 2013 – February 15, 2024 5 playoff appearances

So by this, Kekalainen is a major step forward from his predecessors...but he still sucked at his job. I wonder who'll be the next hire there.

I do think the timing is interesting - trade deadline is right away and you'd think they should be sellers. Jack Roslovic is the only UFA-to-be though I suppose.

Tough situation for the next GM though with most of that team locked in place for a while.
