Blue Jackets Get Even

The Columbus Blue Jackets will not go away as their (3-1) game 2 win squared their series with the Tampa Bay Lightning.

This followed a 5 overtime victory by Tampa Bay in game 1.

Remember last year, in this same round but now 16 months, not 12 later, Columbus shocked the top ranked Lightning, winning in 4 straight games.

Above the Blue Jackets and Toronto Maple Leafs shake hands (I guess if they “faced” each other in hockey, this was fine sans gloves or masks) after Columbus made it 53 consecutive “completed” seasons, sans even a Cup Final appearance for the Maple Leafs.
