Ales Hemsky, our 139th ranked right wing, is best suited to be a depth backup. We project he will end up with the Columbus Blue Jackets because they could use a player of this quality to play right wing. The Blue Jackets currently have only 1 healthy right wings, and 1 is rated better than Hemsky: (Alexander Nylander).
The Blue Jackets currently have no right wings under contract beyond the 2027 season, so Hemsky could see a potential long term contract with the team.
