The Columbus Blue Jackets have made it to the second round. Can you believe it?
The Blue Jackets went down 3-0 in the first period of game one and never looked back en route to sweeping the Tampa Bay Lightning for the first series win in franchise history. The Jackets knocked the Lightning off their game, dominated the neutral zone, and scored timely goals to stifle any momentum the Bolts gained.
For their efforts, the Jackets were rewarded with a week off before they finally learned their second round opponent last night: they will play the Boston Bruins in the second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
