13 years being a jackets fan, been since 2007 (hope my math was correct) and I can say that only half the weight of pain has been lifted. The dream of see Cbj hoisting the cup and the possibility it comes to be gives me hope. But we as well as the jackets can not look past the current situation. We still have a journey to complete and now we must get past Boston or Toronto. I believe they can continue the successes from the first round. It will get harder as they go further, but I believe they will come out of any and all adversity the better team. They shall prevail. The lights are on at the Apollo and the crowd is in anticipation of what performance they are going to get Columbus, give them the performance of a lifetime. All of the worlds eyes are on you now, you carry our hopes and dreams, our aspirations with you. With everyone looking to take you out you must prove to them that you will not be beaten, will not just be Casted aside, left for dead. Prove to them you're the hungriest and that you will settle for nothing short of the cup. You shall show them you will win, and why they shouldn't take you for granted.

The Jackets just played four superior games of hockey, and the Eastern Conference should shudder at the thought of playing them or any other team that sweeps their first round opponent... :) That said, this isn't the end for Tampa. They'll find ways to keep their talent from this year, reload, and make a hell of a run next year. The Bolts might have to do what the Caps did last year; take it easy in the regular season, don't push yourself too hard, then go all out in the playoffs.

[@bajikimran2304]

As I told you yesterday I was at this game. The electricity in the crowd was fantastic. The traffic snarl trying to get in to the arena was brutal. The crowd though, was amped up an hour before the game started. Tampa's allowing the two quick goals by Columbus kept the crowd in high gear and even when Tampa seemed to be taking momentum when they tied the score at 3-3, Oliver Bjorkstrand's goal giving the Jackets back the lead shortly thereafter was a dagger in the heart. In the third period Columbus seemed to be content to play a game of "dump and chase". They didn't seem to be trying to mount an offense. They only seemed to be content to run the clock. That worried me because I felt they should have tried to add to the lead instead of waiting on Tampa to pull their goalie and add an extra attacker. Had they tied the score, that would have been deflating- instead there were three empty net goals and Tampa was done. The Columbus crowd loved and adores Sergei Bobrovsky. It will break a lot of hearts if he leaves.

Glad I was able to watch the Tampa feed instead of NBC, I am really getting annoyed with their commentators. Great win for Columbus, bye bye bracket lol

[@romeofoxtrot4591]

I was at the game tonight. Might have been the loudest arena I've ever been in. I have no voice left and I couldn't be happier about it.

[@lancemilliken9078]

Maybe Stamkos will go golfing with me

[@louks1100]

In the video about Tampa being eliminated will you be able to comment on where do they go from here? I'm in utter disbelief and am gonna find it hard to move forward as a fan next year

[@leftywith4strings201]

Well, Sid and Stammer have a lot to talk about

[@jonnyjon1126]

My voice is gone. My feet hurt from standing the whole time and my back hurts from holding my 19 month old son the whole time and waving a towel. That was amazing to witness as a BLue Jacket fan from day one. Shannon yes you should be jealous. The atmosphere was even better then game 3. McGuire has always had issues with Columbus, I never know why but whenever he does a Blue Jackets game it might as well be a home broadcast for the other team. As a fan it sucks. Keep up the great work I make sure I watch all your stuff.

Whoever betted against Tampa must be felling pretty good right about now

[@jackmclaughlin605]

Hahah that's me, my bracket had Columbus sweeping

[@kieranperreaultdit-morin9262]

3 years later, this was the best lesson for Tampa

[@plainbagel9192]

Texier will be something special

[@EdMcStinko]

Torts apparently was getting beers spilled on him, and instead of flying off the handle he was laughing about it. It was an amazing moment in the sport of hockey.

[@commandershepard1838]

Said it all year, and people said I was a troll that didn’t know hockey. Tampa, when a team gets to prepare for them, is average. Their players except point are overrated. Once someone shuts down coopers system, they can’t win. Happened against Pittsburgh in 16, the caps in 18, now Columbus in 19.

[@looper451]

Randy Randerson Thats not really all that insightful. That could be said about literally any team in any sport. When a team has time to prepare, the Raptors are an average team. When a team has time to prepare, the Packers are an average team. See

Randy Randerson I said Tampa will not win the cup this year I wasn’t expecting them out first round but not winning the cup but people didn’t wanna believe me

[@nkuziemsky]

Congratulations Columbus! This game was fantastic I love the playoffs!

[@TampaTec]

that was hard to watch as a Tampa fan. Columbus just wanted it more and had better plan and executed it better. Kuch hurt his team this series but if he stayed focused he could have been this series hero. This loss might be so bad that it could carry over to the next season. Now it's time to shop for a new TV remote.

[@salespo6129]

Everyone’s bracket it broken after tonight. Literally everyone. Amazing

[@gymrat2647]

Knights fan sweeping the lighting that’s pretty impressive being one of the biggest upsets in NHL playoff history and sports.

[@JoeOsChannel]

Nothing against Tampa Bay. And never really been a Columbus fan (nor did I dislike them)...but yeah. This was a fun series to watch. Congrats Columbus. Congrats Torts. Well played series. Congrats on your first ever franchise playoff round win. You guys are playing good hockey! (I might copy and paste most of this comment for the upcoming video on the Islanders sweep of the Penguins).

[@moose7454]

Pierre hasn’t slept in days he’s been in a different city 7 nights in a row so that’s why he’s cranky

[@nneichan9353]

I am so sorry to see the TBL out so quickly. What a fantastic year they have had. Deep congratulations to CBJ I am thrilled to see them so convincingly sweep their first round opponent. WOW.
