John Ramage: Headed overseas
Ramage inked a two-year contract with the Berlin Eisbaren (DEL) on Friday.
Ramage spent the 2018-19 campaign with AHL Binghamton, but was never able to earn a call-up from the Devils. The blueliner logged 384 contests in the AHL, in which he tallied 31 goals, 83 helpers and 385 PIM. The University of Wisconsin product will play overseas for the first time in his professional career and has probably appeared in his last NHL game.

Devils' John Ramage: Signs with Devils
Ramage signed a one-year, two-way deal with the Devils on Sunday.
The deal is worth $650,000 at the NHL level, but only $125,000 at the AHL level. The 27-year-old played for three different AHL teams last season, so he's been bouncing around. The son of former NHLer Rob Ramage has 97 points in 337 career minor-league games.

Predators' John Ramage: Headed to Predators
Ramage was shipped out Monday along with Tyler Gaudet from Arizona to Nashville, while Pierre-Cedric Labrie and Trevor Murphy went the other way.
The 26-year-old has been bouncing around the league this year, and after being rostered by Columbus and Arizona, he'll now be under Nashville's jurisdiction. Ramage has been a career AHL player after graduating from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2012-13, appearing in 289 games and notching 80 points (19 goals, 61 assists). He'll report to AHL Milwaukee.

Coyotes' John Ramage: Traded to Arizona
Ramage was traded from the Blue Jackets to the Coyotes for future considerations on Monday.
This deal isn't going to move the fantasy needle. The 26-year-old hasn't played in the NHL since the 2015-16 season, and he only has two NHL games to his name. Maybe he will get an opportunity with the Coyotes, but it likely won't make him a fantasy value suddenly.

Blue Jackets' John Ramage: Shuffled to waiver wire
Ramage (hamstring) was waived by Columbus on Monday, Rick Ralph of TSN 1290 Winnipeg reports.
The defender had a tough break in this season's camp, as a hamstring injury he suffered on Sept. 22 kept him from continuing to compete for an NHL job. If Ramage is able to clear waivers, it's likely that he'll subsequently be demoted to the minors. Ramage has just two NHL games under his belt and will likely have to wait for an injury or two to the Jackets' blue line before he gets a chance for a recall.

Blue Jackets' John Ramage: Suffers hamstring injury
Ramage injured his hamstring and is expected to be sidelined 2-to-4 weeks, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic Clevelandreports.
Ramage failed to crack the game-day lineup for the Blue Jackets last season, instead spending the entire year with AHL Cleveland, where he registered four goals and 21 helpers. The University of Wisconsin product has just two NHL contests under his belt and was likely a long shot for a spot on the 23-man roster. Once given the all-clear, the 26-year-old will almost certainly be reassigned to the minors.

Blue Jackets' John Ramage: Placed on waivers
Ramage was waived by Columbus on Friday, TSN's Bob McKenzie reports.
Ramage has been recovering from offseason shoulder surgery, so Friday's move indicates he's likely received medical clearance, and will be ready to slot into AHL Cleveland's lineup immediately if he goes unclaimed. The 25-year-old blueliner is just organizational depth for Columbus at this stage in his career, and likely won't be back with the big club this season unless the Blue Jackets sustain several injuries at defense.

Blue Jackets' John Ramage: Promoted to parent club
Ramage was recalled by the Blue Jackets on Wednesday.
Ramage will likely stick with the big club for the rest of the season, as Jack Johnson is set to miss the remainder of the 2015-16 campaign after undergoing shoulder surgery. It isn't clear what kind of role Ramage will slot into with the Blue Jackets, but he's been decent in the minors this season, notching 18 points (six goals, 12 assists) with a minus-1 rating through 55 games.

Per Blue Jackets club policy, terms of Ramage's contract were not disclosed. The 25-year-old defenseman has spent the entirety of this season with AHL Lake Erie, where he has accumulated 16 points in 49 contests, good for second-best among club defensemen. The University of Wisconsin product will look to make the Columbus roster going forward.
