Thank You From The Hockey News Columbus Team

Apr 19, 2025

Thank You, Columbus!

It’s been a long, tough, and emotional year — but with help from this incredible fanbase, we pushed through.

None of it would’ve been possible without the loyal support of Columbus Blue Jackets fans. You showed up, stuck with us, and helped my colleague Jason Newland and I stay driven to bring you the best content we could all season long.

Now, as we shift from regular season coverage to the off-season, our goal remains the same: to keep delivering the best content possible.

Here’s a look at what we’ll be diving into over the next few months:

Off-Season Decisions
Potential Draft Picks
Free Agent Targets

Of course, there’ll be more along the way — so stay locked in, Blue Jackets fans.

Most of all, enjoy your summer. You've earned it.
