The Kings need scoring, and will pay a fair price to bring in Nash, the big scoring winger that they need. They also have solid depth on the blueline, and two franchise goalies.
The Jackets need to start fresh with a franchise goalie and franchise defenseman, as well as a skilled forward in Loktioniov, who has been a spare part in LA.
A deal such as this makes sense for both teams IMO. Mason gets a fresh start as a backup, which his skillset and body of work suggests he is better suited for, while Lebda is a throw-in.
My prediction: Kings give: F Loktionov, G J Bernier, D J Johnson
Jackets give: F R Nash, G S Mason, D B Lebda

Philly rumors.. Schenn/Couturier... JvR/Bob... this is getting crazy. Honestly don't wanna see Nash in Phi.

My prediction:
Columbus sends: Rick Nash, +
To
St. Louis for: Chris Stewart, Ben Bishop, +
Even though the Blues are not on "the list", I think the deal makes sense for both teams. Blues need a guy who can really be a go-to goal scorer. Blues also have the cap space to absorb Nash's salary, especially if they rid themselves of Stewart.
Jackets get a top-six forward with upside and a future #1 goalie. They should be able to resign Stewart, who's an RFA next year, and I'm guessing won't command a big payday due to his poor season.
Both teams have a history with each other (Hitch, Nikitin for example)... And the Blues have shown less fear in the past couple years to make a meaningful splash. The Blues also have to realize they need a shot in the arm to go head to head with Detroit and Vancover in the playoffs. Nash would be that guy.
So that's my long-shot, ain't gonna happen trade. Chime in if you agree or disagree that's even remotely a possibility...

According to CBC’s The Hot Stove, Blue Jackets GM Scott Howson is seeking two prospects, a player that can make an immediate impact, and a first round draft pick for Rick Nash.
Bahahahahah!

She thinks Bernier and Brown is enough for Nash:
