2023 Fantasy Outlook
Berni joined the Columbus lineup in early December and was a regular for the club the rest of the way. It did not lead to any positive production from a statistical standpoint. In 59 games, Berni managed just a goal and three points while finishing with an ugly minus-26 rating. Although still just 23 years of age, Berni has never been much of a point producer, even going back to his days in Switzerland. He appears to be no better than No. 7 or 8 on the defensive depth chart for the Blue Jackets heading into the 2023-24 campaign and there's a real chance Berni will begin the upcoming season in the AHL.

Berni is expected to play in Switzerland this season, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The 23-year-old blueliner failed in his bid to make the Blue Jackets' roster in training camp. Rather than head to AHL Cleveland, Berni will return home to play in the Swiss National League -- he played 146 games for Zurich SC between 2017-18 and 2020-21 prior to coming over to North America. Columbus will still retain his NHL rights as a restricted free agent since he was issued a qualifying offer over the summer.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could play in Switzerland
DColumbus Blue Jackets  Foreign
October 6, 2023
Berni, who is an unsigned restricted free agent, may return to his native county of Switzerland to play this season, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Berni participated in the Blue Jackets' training camp despite being unsigned, doing so on a professional tryout deal. The defenseman was crowded out of the club's NHL plans by the offseason additions of Ivan Provorov and Damon Severson as well as Zach Werenski's return from injury. Berni may not have an NHL contract all season unless negotiations between the player and team improve drastically.
