And now, the wait is finally over.
The Blue Jackets will host their annual Media Day inside Nationwide Arena on Wednesday. John Davidson, Jarmo Kekalainen, Bill Zito, and coach Todd Richards will be available to speak with the media about the upcoming season.
On Thursday morning, all players participating in Blue Jackets Training Camp (pres. by OhioHealth) will report to McConnell Spine, Sport & Joint Center for physical and medical testing, and then, the fun really begins.
Training camp will officially open on Friday, Sept. 18, with the first morning session slated to begin at 9 a.
