The Columbus Blue Jackets have become known as a perennial slow starter, however the short sample we’ve seen this season makes it seem as if that reputation may be broken. Last season, the Blue Jackets started the season with a record of 2-2-1 and had 12 goals through the first five games. Compare that to this season’s starting record of 4-1-0 and it appears the Blue Jackets have become a brand new team compared to years past.
