Information about Columbus Blue Jackets
The blue jackets were a young team founded in 2000 but unfortunately does not qualify for the Stanley Cup Playoffs until the year of 2009. In year 1978 Cleveland and Barons left Ohio and nobody is expecting that it would take 22 long years before another NHL team would be welcomed in the state. It was only on year 1997 when the NHL declared that there will be a new franchise for the Columbus; because of the May 31 announcements from the Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company that says that they will foot the bill for a new $150-million arena in Columbus.
The logo of the blue jackets originated in Ohio’s rich Civil War history and this would mean the patriotism, and pride of Ohio. In the term of service of President Abraham Lincoln he asked Ohio to have ten regiments at the outbreaks of the civil war and they managed to form a 23 volunteer infantry regiments.
The logo of the blue jackets is a version of the flag of Ohio that is styled and was used in the sweaters sport with crossed hockey sticks. This is also where Stinger is created, the official team mascot who is a 6 footer and bright green in color. Stinger can be seen walking along the audience during the games and skating on the ice between the games and wearing a team jersey.
Due to public demand, the Blue jackets organization comes up with a hand-made replica of an 1867 Napoleon cannon and they put it in the Nationwide Arena. Every time the team scores a home goal this cannon would salute. It was certainly amazing that the cannon fired no less than 164 times.
For the Blue Jacket’s fan the cannon has been a part of the culture. The cannon would normally produce a .75oz concussion explosive that is placed above the rink. It also bring great feeling for the fans whenever they hear the music after the cannon which is the For Those About to Rock (We salute you).
The Blue Jackets got their first Stanley Cup Playoff in year 2009 by defeating the Chicago team. The team had made their advantage during the year of 2008 especially when they get Raffi Torres in trade for Gilbert Brule and exchanging Nikolai Zherdey and Dan Fritsche to the New York Rangers in exchange for Fedor Tyutin and Christian Backman. The Blue Jackets also receive Antoine Vermette from the Ottawa Senators in trade for Pascal Leclaire.
