When that cannon fires at Nationwide Arena, you feel it in your chest. Columbus Blue Jackets fans built something real in Ohio's capital — and proved it to the hockey world in 2019 when they swept the 62-win Tampa Bay Lightning in the first round, one of the greatest upsets in NHL playoff history. The Fifth Line (what CBJ fans call themselves) shows up season after season with the kind of passion that's turning Columbus into a legitimate hockey town.
