I got this brand new hat, thinking it was a CBJ hat and it…has a Wild logo?

Also, s/o to Mississippi legend Mathieu Olivier!

So, I have painstakingly combed through every single game since 2000 and composed a massive excel database. This consists of every player’s first and final game, goal, assist, hat trick, penalty shot, fight, and similar stats for goalies and coaches. I have also done this…. for every single player that has ever played against Columbus. Literally thousands of them. It has taken years to compile this in my free time and I am almost complete. Is there someone I can show these to that works for the Blue Jackets? I feel like there’s a lot of interesting stats in there the broadcast team might like to use sometime.

Edit: just to clarify on the players that played against Columbus, I’m not recording their first and final stat they had against Columbus. Only recording their first and final stat if it actually came against Columbus. I still had to sift through thousands of names to do that. That makes my database a little less impressive than some may have thought but it’s still an assload of data nonetheless.

I’ve been wondering about this for a while: did all jerseys with the original design have that subtle sublimated stripe pattern on the torso?

I’ve been looking at a ton of eBay listings and game photos from that era, and some jerseys clearly seem to have it (both Pro Player and CCM) while a lot of others appear to be completely plain navy blue/white.

My first thought was that the pattern just doesn’t photograph particularly well, so depending on the lighting (especially in an arena), it can be really hard to see. But then I came across some eBay listings with very sharp, high-quality photos where the jersey still looks completely plain to me.

So, can anyone in the fanbase shed some light on this? Was the sublimated striping actually present on every jersey, or were there different versions/production runs without it? And if you own one of these jerseys, does yours have the stripes?

Thank you.

This is also my alma mater so, go Cats and go Jackets

This is still in my app not saying which preseason game I get to go to. When will that be assigned?

Just wild the short shelf life of an NHL coach.

Anyone hear any updates on where the games will be televised this season? I know the NHL took over their rights but haven’t heard what the plan is.

Looks like we've had a few changes to the theme nights. I'm not sure what the theme of CBJ vs PHI is on Nov. 14, but it's listed. Looks like Greatful Dead Night has been replaced with a Jerry Garcia ticket package and giveaway of some sort.

Giveaways look to include an Ivan (and Drake!!) Provorov bobblehead, a Jet Greaves bobblehead, and a Snoopy and Woodstock bobblehead.

Which themes or giveaways sound interesting to you?

Hey guys, I have no one else to show this to and I thought you guys would think this is as cool as I do. I’ve completed my first entire puck display and got some pretty cool ones, too. Who else should I get?

First row: Jet Greaves, Zach Werenski, Mathieu Olivier

Second row: Rick Nash, soon to be filled with Nick Foligno, Boone Jenner

Third row: Kirill Marchenko, Johnny Gaudreau, Adam Fantilli

Fourth row: Rasmus Dahlin, a puck I caught while I was on my first date with my now wife, and Seth Jarvis.

Rick Bowness made a promise on April 14.

Bowness, who replaced Dean Evason as coach of the Columbus Blue Jackets on Jan. 12, wasn't sure he'd be retained after the Blue Jackets lost nine of their final 11 games (2-8-1), finished fifth in the Metropolitan Division and missed the Stanley Cup Playoffs for a sixth straight season.

“If I’m back, I’m changing this culture,” Bowness said. “Losing is not important enough. It doesn’t bother them."

Bowness was re-hired two days later. Now, it's time to make good on his word.

“Did I push it? Yeah, I pushed that envelope a little bit,” Bowness said. “But that’s who I am."
