Columbus Blue Jackets History
The Columbus Blue Jackets—whose name pays tribute to Ohio's substantial contributions to the Union army during the Civil War—joined the NHL as an expansion franchise in 2000.
The Blue Jackets played their first 12 seasons as a member of the Western Conference, making their first foray into the Stanley Cup Playoffs in 2008-2009 led by All-Star winger Rick Nash and Rookie of the Year goaltender Steve Mason.
NHL realignment saw the team move to the Eastern Conference in 2013-2014, and the Blue Jackets have since collected six winning seasons and qualified for the Stanley Cup Playoffs five times. Columbus was one of just three teams to earn playoff berths in four consecutive seasons from 2016-2020, joining the Boston Bruins and Washington Capitals.
In 2018-2019, the eighth-seeded Blue Jackets faced off against the Presidents' Trophy-winning and top-seeded Tampa Bay Lightning in the first round of the playoffs. The Blue Jackets shocked the heavily-favored Lightning as they became the first team in NHL history to earn a four-game sweep in the first round of the playoffs against a team with the league's best regular-season record.

by RJax42 on 4/26/14Nationwide Arena - ColumbusRating: 5 out of 5Nationwide Arena was rocking! This was the best sporting event I have ever attended, and I've attended 300+. Only negative was that concessions were VERY slow- need to increase the staff for playoff games.

The greatest game in franchise history
by bluegrasslover on 4/26/14Nationwide Arena - ColumbusRating: 5 out of 5I bought two tickets for game four Bluejackets versus the team from pittsburgh and it turned out to be the greatest game in franchise history. It was a birthday present for my son's 21st birthday and the Jackets delivered. Pretty good seats, unbelievably loud crowd and a thrilling overtime comeback victory. If you are a fan that is all I should have to say. My hope is that all Blue Jacket fans can have that kind of sports viewing moment with a loved one. CBJ baby
CBJ
by Dudsy on 4/26/14Nationwide Arena - ColumbusRating: 5 out of 5Awesome hockey game! To see CBJ win in overtime was an experience I'll never forget. I was hugged and high-fived by dozens of complete strangers all celebrating the glorious victory. This makes me want to witness every play off game in person and I will do my best to accomplish that goal. Nationwide Arena was a madhouse of happy fans. Go Blue Jackets!
CBJ!!

Stanley Cup Playoff Game 4
by cooloo on 4/26/14Nationwide Arena - ColumbusRating: 5 out of 5OMG....what a game! This was a playoff game that a fan will never forget. The Jackets came back from a 3-0 deficit and won it in overtime 4-3. We are the fifth line (the fans) were loud and proud. When Derick MacKenzie tied the score with literally seconds left, the arena erupted with cheer. Then when Nick Foligno scored the winning goal in overtime, it was even louder. The cannon went off three times but you could hardly hear it.
