  • One of the Best Podcasts Around

    Jay and Hayden have great chemistry and you can tell how much they love their beloved Blue Jackets. They are just as frustrated about the Blue Jackets loses as your average fans but know the future is bright with the up and coming stars on the team. A must listen for all Jackets fans!

  • Uninteresting, lazy, waste of time.

    If you like hockey and the Columbus Blue Jackets, this is not the show for you. The hosts are uninteresting and lazy. They self admittedly do very little research for each episode and are very often incorrect with facts that take about 5 seconds to google. They would rather spend 30 minutes on hoping the Blue Jackets “tank” than actually review a game and talk about plays and players. On top of all that, the hosts are low energy and boring.

  • Great work

    Always super informative. Hosts are knowledgeable and it’s an easy way to keep up with news, as well as deep dives on trades/prospects etc. Definitely recommend for fans (or rivals!)

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Valeri Nichushkin Joins Columbus Blue Jackets—Can He Turbocharge Special Teams SUCCESS?
Q: Earlier this summer, the Blue Jackets made a trade for Valeri Nichushkin to try and bolster the top six. What kind of impact is he going to make?
Chris Micieli gives context on Nichushkin's all-around game, his fit with Columbus's needs on the wing, and how his presence could improve the Jackets' special teams and depth, while acknowledging that injuries and consistency have been a factor in evaluating his upside.
Are the Columbus Blue Jackets' NHL DRAFT Moves UNDERWHELMING or Underrated?
Q: What was your overall impression of the Jackets' draft with limited value picks?
The pick was solid and value-heavy at 14 with Hemming, plus a handful of depth pieces that fit the long-term plan; it wasn't flashy, but it got the job done and filled the prospect pool with players who project to college hockey paths and grow into usable NHL players.
2026 DRAFT: Columbus Blue Jackets Can Add Size & Skill To Prospect Pool With Malte Gustaffson
Q: Who do you have at 14 and would Gustafsson be a fit for Columbus?
Tony notes that Adam Novotny is at 14 in his ranking and explains Gustafsson would fit as a high-end defensive prospect, potentially top-of-pool material for Columbus, depending on how the board shifts closer to the draft.
2026 DRAFT: Does Jack Hextall Make Sense For The Columbus Blue Jackets?
Q: What do you see in Jack Hextall as a prospect that makes him a potential early-to-mid first-rounder?
Hextall stands out for his exceptional hockey sense, pace, and ability to drive the play from the middle with strong off-puck anticipation. He fits a niche as a high-IQ center who can enable teammates and potentially develop into a smart two-way driver, though his offensive finishing and drive may require time to mature. His performance on the MSU/USHL path suggests a high ceiling if development is guided and steady.
OLYMPICS SQUAD: USA Women's Hockey DOMINATES – Can Marie-Philip Poulin and Team Canada PULL the UPSET?
Q: Does this make any of you guys think twice about NHL participation in the Olympics considering the risk of injury?
Despite the risk, many believe participating in the Olympics is essential for NHL players to showcase their talent on the world stage.
