Jake Bean will join his third team in six NHL seasons on Monday as he signed a two-year deal worth $3.5 million ($1.75M AAV) with Calgary. The 26-year-old appeared in 72 games for Columbus in 2023-24 and had four goals, 13 points, 32 PIms and a -10 plus/minus.
Bean exited Thursday's 4-2 loss to the New York Islanders after playing 13:49 time-on-ice and will miss the remainder of the season. The 25-year-old Bean ends the season with 13 points (4G / 9A), 76 shots, and 110 blocks in 72 games.
The Blue Jackets opted for an 11-forward, seven-defensemen formation on Tuesday but will return to the traditional formation on Thursday as Bean will be a healthy scratch, allowing Kiril Marchenko to draw back into the lineup. Bean played 13:26 time-on-ice on Tuesday, tallying one assist.

Bean had left the Blue Jackets' previous contests after playing only 8:55 TOI after leaving with a shoulder injury.

Bean was the No.13 overall pick in 2016 and had 12 points (1G / 11A) in 42 games in his first full NHL season in 2020-21.
