Blue Jackets General manager Scott Howson was on NHL Live this afternoon and talked about the coaching search in vague details. He did talk about the timeline for this search to end, though.
"I was hoping to get it done in late May," said Howson. "If it stretches into June it's ok with me."
Portland Pirates head coach Kevin Dineen had his second interview with Columbus yesterday. He is competing with Blue Jackets interim head coach Claude Noel, Scott Arniel of the Manitoba Moose, and coach of the Hamilton Bulldogs Guy Boucher, who is the reason this could stretch into June, as Hamilton is still playing.

Dineen to be Interviewed This Week
According to the Columbus Dispatch's Aaron Portzline, Portland Pirates head coach Kevin Dineen is expected to interview for the vacant Columbus Blue Jackets head coaching gig this week, perhaps as early as today. Scott Arniel, the head coach of the Manitoba Moose, was interviewed yesterday. Other candidates include Hamilton Bulldogs coach Guy Boucher, Red Wings assistant coach Paul Maclean, and Blue Jackets interim coach Claude Noel. The team went 10-8-6 after Noel took over for the fired Ken Hitchcock, who is rumored to be the front-runner for the New Jersey Devils coaching job.
Dineen has been the head coach of the Pirates since 2005.

Dineen Drawing NHL Interest Again
"I think Columbus is hotter after him. #speculation"
Regardless, I put the odds at 4-1 Dineen returns behind the Pirates bench next season. He and his family love this area, which he has stated numerous times on the Jab, so it might be tough to leave, but how long can you avoid the NHL? I'll rank the teams in order of chances he goes there below.
1. Tampa Bay. Dineen would do great things with Steven Stamkos.
2. New Jersey. It would be the best fit for him and the team, but will Lamoriello make the right move?
3. Columbus. Dineen might be able to get this team back on track after they slipped this year.
4. Atlanta. Who the hell wants to coach hockey in Atlanta?
Globe and Mail: 14 coaching candidates

Saturday Morning Quick-Hits Part 2
American League
Mike Lowell's outburst in the 9th inning summed up the Red Sox night. Dan Shaughnessy wants Manny Ramirez to be shown out the door after he pulled himself out of the lineup right before last night's game.
The Blue Jays stabbed the Mariners in the heart in extras last night while wearing their throwbacks.
Seattle keeps finding new ways to lose. Just a sad season in the Emerald City.
Jermaine Dye's 2 run blast propelled he Chi Sox to a much needed win. The Chi Sox are still in first place in the Central.
Todd Jones took the blame for last night's loss, as he should. The Tigers are now 6 and half games back of the first place White Sox.
Minnesota lost, the game and Carlos Gomez. I can't for the life of me figure out why he is in still in the rotation and Francisco Liriano is still in AAA. Stop being cheap and give your team a chance, the Twins are still only 3 and half games back of Chicago.
The Angels hung on in Baltimore. Francisco Rodriguez is one step closer to removing Bobby Thigpen from the record books.
The Rangers unloaded on the A's, and moved into second place in the AL West. Kevin Millwood is headed to the DL, again.
National League
The Mets win again, and extended their lead to 2 games, thanks to Mike Pelfrey and Carlos Delgado. There is word in this notebook that Pedro will be back soon, that the Mets thought they had a chance at Xavier Nady, and that Angel Pagan is going to have season ending surgery.
The Phillies stink out loud. Watched this game, and Chase Utley was getting booed, although he had no comments for Phils fans like he did New Yorkers at the Home Run Derby. Charlie Manuel held a closed door meeting before last night's game, to unhappy results.
The Marlins knocked off the Cubs thanks to Jeremy Hermida. Former Red Sox prospect Anibal Sanchez is scheduled to return.
The Brewers are human after all, after falling the Astros last night. The Brewers are still in trade rumors, but Doug Melvin likes his team as they are now. Apparently he is unconcerned about his bullpen.
The Cubs promoted Brady Quinn's favorite Notre Dame target.
The Cardinals couldn't overcome the Mets. Ryan Franklin has stumbled since taking over for Jason Isringhausen. Chris Carpenter is on a rehab stint.
The Pirates said goodbye to Damaso Marte and Xavier Nady during the game yesterday. The Bucs proceeded to lose to the Padres.
Dan Haren got plenty of offense last night against the hapless Giants. The win got them back to .500 for the season, and keeps them a game ahead of LA in first.
The Dodgers got another strong performance from Chad Billingsley and offense from Nomar Garciaparra to knock off the Nats. Juan Pierre returned from the DL and started last night.
The Rockies won again, thanks to Aaron Cook. Don't be surprised if the Rockies make no deadline moves and hold onto Fuentes and Holliday.
NFL
Albert Haynesworth signed a one year deal with the Titans. Check out the incentives he has to make to keep the Titans from franchising him again next year.
Lamont Jordan is looking for work.
NBA
Sasha Vujacic re-signs with the Lakers. Ray Allen and the makers of brown suede headbands rejoice.
Former Celtic Ryan Gomes is back in Minnesota.
Delonte West and his tattoos may be headed east, like, Russia-east...
NHL
Former Lightning coach John Tortorella will interview for the vacant Islanders job on Sunday. He should be great with the New York media.
Eastern League
The Sea Dogs got back on the winning track last night, beating Trenton 2-1. Trenton's starting pitcher, Phil Coke, was removed after the first when he was traded to Pittsburgh.
AHL
Kevin Dineen may still be the head coach for the Portland Pirates next year. Great move by the Sabres organization if this comes true.
