The Columbus Blue Jackets had an up and down season in 2017-18. The team started fast before injuries in November, December, and January derailed the team. The Jackets fell out of a playoff spot near the All Star Break before making three trades at the Trade Deadline that stabilized the lineup. After the Deadline, the team won ten games in a row and secured a berth in the playoffs in game 81.
