[edit] 2004-05 season
I think that since the season didn't happen at all it should not be on the chart of records for each year--it simply looks bad to have it there. I think the footnote should be kept, but without the actual number, perhaps an asterisk? What do you think? Thomas Carson 07:36, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
- It's included as part of the record list for every team. RGTraynor 13:10, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
- And shouldn't be. Thomas Carson 00:37, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
- Which is entirely a matter of opinion, but if you want to try to get consensus around changing the Team Pages Format to your POV, feel free to post on Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Ice_Hockey/Team_pages_format. RGTraynor 01:44, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] List of Columbus Blue Jackets players
I have just completed the List of Columbus Blue Jackets players. As of the end of the 2003-04 NHL season, this list is complete for every player that has donned a Blue Jackets sweater. Please help and keep this list accurate by adding players when the start playing for Columbus. Thanks! Masterhatch 12 August 2005
[edit] Civil War Reference for name
I've noticed that the right shoulder patch on their jerseys now has a styleized cap worn by Union soldiers during the Civil War. I wonder if the team will begin to shift to that idea rather than the amorphous team identity the have currently...
Example: http://www.bluejackets.com/graphics/fans/wallpaper/pics/1024x768_denis.jpg
- The Civil War logo was introduced in October, 2003, for use on the third jersey. See http://www.bluejackets.com/news/press/arts/1686.0.html. I doubt they'll ever "settle" on one particular theme, so they can maintain more options for marketing the team.

[edit] Blue Jackets Standings and Statistics
I edited the 2005-2006 standings to be up to date as of their game on Monday, February 6, 2006, when the Blue Jackets lost to the Vancouver Canucks. The only problem is that I was unable to find any sites with statistics covering current PIM (Penalty Minutes) numbers, so I had to leave that unchanged. Perhaps someone can link to a regularly updated sports site which does show a team's PIM for future reference to anyone who will edit the Blue Jackets' standings every now and then.--Resident Lune 06:38, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
- I went to http://www.tsn.ca/ and added up the individual PIM between all Blue Jackets' players who have played so far this season, so the PIM is now up to date. However it'd still be convenient to find an easier way to cover PIMs in the standings.--Resident Lune 06:46, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
- I left a message on your talk page about this. --Buchanan-Hermit™..CONTRIBS..SPEAK! 06:47, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Infobox
I like the looks of it. RGTraynor 21:04, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
- How about adding, the current captain & alternate captains? The rest looks cool. GoodDay 00:07, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for the feedback. I'm actually a little hesitant to add the Captain and Alternate Captains sections, but I can understand why it would be wanted in the infobox. The reason I am, though, is because of the C and A already in the current roster section. That, and wanting to not make the box that much longer after adding important sections such as Conference, Division, and Titles.
- I'll see what I can do, though. A concensus or a few other opinions would be great before I make a definite change.-Resident Lune 01:31, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
- I like it as well. Any way we can nominate it to be the new standard infobox for NHL teams, at least? NeoChaosX 22:02, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
- And regarding captains, I think that should be left out of the box. Captains and alternate captains can change over the course of the season due to injuries, trades and the like. The infobox should be for more important and nonchanging information. NeoChaosX 22:06, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Possible move to Winnipeg?
could it be possible? i herd that it was the reason why they are having exibition games in winnipeg, to see if winnipeg cares about NHL hockey or not. IMURDAD 19 September 2006
- Having had a NHL team for a quarter-century, I don't imagine there's any doubt on the issue. If an official announcement is made, it will be reflected in the various articles here. RGTraynor 05:04, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
- Wait, what? Why is this being asked on the Blue Jackets' discussion page of all places? The Jackets aren't having any exhibition matches in Winnipeg (though other teams are), and they've only been in the league five seasons (six if you include the lock-out).
