Trigger Warning: If you’re still sore over how the playoffs ended for the Columbus Blue Jackets last spring, then beware. Any broadcast of this game will certainly bring up how these teams faced off last season in the first round. Our boys in blue shocked the hockey world by winning the first two games in Washington in overtime, then proceeded to lose the next four as the Capitals advanced all the way to their first Stanley Cup.
