Episode Details

The Columbus Blue Jackets kick off their 2026-27 season at home with a stacked early schedule, playing 12 of their first 18 games at Nationwide Arena — a franchise first under an 84-game slate. Luke Tuch, brother of Alex Tuch, signs a two-way deal to bring grit and size to the forward group. Key matchups include Boone Jenner’s return to Columbus on New Year’s Eve and Mason Marchment’s visit with San Jose in March. The team faces 13 back-to-backs and a brutal Western Canada road trip in January. Off the ice, former Blue Jackets exec John Davidson joins the Sabres, while Matt Calvert lands a development role with Nashville — proving hockey’s offseason is anything but quiet.
