Jackets prospect leaves Crunch to start offseason conditioning

Tuesday, May 6, 2008 6:17 AM




Blue Jackets prospect Stefan Legein, the second-round pick in the 2007 draft, has left the Syracuse Crunch to get a jump on his offseason conditioning program, general manager Scott Howson said. Legein, a winger, played sparingly in just two Crunch postseason games after joining the team from junior hockey last month. Howson said he didn't want Legein, 19, serving as a spare part when he could be getting started on his workouts.
The Crunch enjoys a 2-0 series lead in the second round of the Calder Cup playoffs. Legein had 24 goals and 13 assists in 30 games for Mississauga of the Ontario Hockey League.

he deserves a break after coming back from his shoulder injury and playing the last bit of the season and playing the playoffs...then playing 2 games in the AHL i thought was pushing it...good for him to get into his conditioning

Well he needs the break. He'll be well rested for the start of next season, plenty of time for him to shine
