Columbus Blue Jackets Tickets
The Blue Jackets are currently in last place in the Central Division, and fourth from the bottom of the entire NHL, with 49 points based on their 20-25-9 record.
As was the case last year, Columbus is relying heavily on the performance of their captain and left-winger, Rick Nash, who leads the team with 49 points and 24 goals. With further support from leftwing Kristian Huselius (41 points – 15goals, 26 assists), center Antoine Vermette (41 points – 16 goals, 25 assists), and center R.J. Umberger (36 points – 18 goals, 18 assists), and strong goaltending and defense, the Blue Jackets will be looking to make a run at the playoffs for only the second time in their history, and in as many years.
In addition to having already locked up Nash and young star Derek Brassard with extensions in the offseason, Columbus further strengthened the nucleus of the squad by signing Vermette to a five-year contract extension through the 2014-15 season, trading a 2010 third-round draft pick to Calgary for defenseman Anton Stralman, and also signing defenseman Rostislav Klesla to a four-year contract extension through the 2013-14 season. With all of the above, in addition to strong play in by number one goaltender Steve Mason, and backup Mathieu Garon, the Blue Jackets have a strong foundation and good chance to claw their way back into the playoffs again this season.
True hockey fans will notice and appreciate the potential of their hometown team, and ticket sales should increase throughout the season. Make sure to get yours now, and be there as the Columbus Blue Jackets work toward another playoff run – one which may even see them go further than anticipated.
