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.

Columbus Blue Jackets at Nationwide Arena
The Columbus Blue Jackets have played at Nationwide Arena since their inaugural season in 2000. Located in the heart of The Arena District downtown, the arena features a 1857 Napoleon replica cannon that blasts when the Blue Jackets hit the ice at the start of the game, when they score, and at the end of the game following a Columbus win.

The Blue Jackets play their final game of the regular season at home against Metropolitan Division opponents the Carolina Hurricanes. Here’s a list of key games to keep an eye on:

What a entertaining evening. My first time seeing the Bluejackets and I was not disappointed. They beat the Wild and what a show. Great family fun and entertaining from pre game and until the end! Great job Bluejackets!! Excellent
The Blue Jackets started the season with a great game against the Minnesota Wild, The Jackets rewarded the sell-out crowd with a 2-1 victory.
Very good seats, and the win was nice too!!!!
Nationwide Arena is an awesome atmosphere for hockey. Everytime I have gone, it's been a fantastic evening out. Last night I took my 8 year old son for his first regular season game and created a Blue Jackets fan for life! If you've never been to a game, treat yourself. It is a great time no matter what you age.
Everything went as planned. Tickets arrived a day before the hockey game. Included with the tickets were the coupons for a hotdog, popcorn and a drink. We had to get all three food items at one time. It would have been nice to come back later for the popcorn. It was difficult to care everything. Seats were good. Everybody had a good time.
The game was a lot of fun! There were a lot of fights and the Blue Jackets won!
This is a great way to share a hockey game with children. The package is very affordable and includes a hot dog, drink, and popcorn so you don't have to spend any extra money once you arrive. The seats are up high, but for young children (and adults that aren't sure they would like hockey) it offers a great view of all of the plays. We have purchased this package 4 different times and have not been disappointed.
I was a little disappointed that the majority of fans seemed to be there to watch the pens play, as I noticed I was one of about 10 blue jackets fans in my section, but the game was amazing, and I was pumped to be able to see John Moore play!!
While we were rooting for the Penguins, and they lost, we still had a great time!
Great game against the Pittsburgh Penquins except way too many fights.
Besides the fact that my team lost, I enjoyed the atmosphere at Nationwide. It is a great arena with great views from almost everywhere. The one annoying thing is that after every blue jackets goal they fire a big cannon that is so loud it hurts your ears. But if it gets fans fired up for hockey...I love it! Hopefully when I go next month, I'll see a Penguins win.
I've attended both regular season and preseason games and the hype around them are very similar. I loved my experience last night while attending the Penguins vs. Jackets game. Nationwide is honestly one of the best venues out there and preseason or not, it's always fun to watch the young Jackets team beat up on other teams!
Great game, great seats had a blast lots of goals and fights
A great hockey game! OK, I know it is just preseason, but the Pens threw their tough lines at our young players and we scored 5 goals. Lots of fun!
Had great seats...Section 101, Row A, Seats 1 & 2....UNREAL experience
Going to the games has always been fun but this season is brewing with even more excitement, new attitude,effort and general overall good guys make up this team. Thanks Jackets for all you do.
I bought the tickets for my sons 18th Birthday. It was a huge gift! Instead of the seats in the nosebleed section we went all out and got ones a few rows from the ice. Two days before the game he got sick and the doctor put him in isolation so he didn't get to go. He was very upset needless to say. He gave the tickets to his father and brother who were able to enjoy them.
No goaltending but a great offense! Overall a very entertaining game! Wish more people would show up for preseason games.
I made it to about a dozen Columbus Blue Jackets games last year and hope to exceed that this year. I've never failed to be entertained by them.
Loads of fun, great team, sport and the venue is outstanding.
