We all know Jackets and Wings do not mix to well. However what I have found is more of an envy towards Detroit, and not a true hatred. However I get the feeling that the Columbus fateful really despise them Predators. I am sure if we were to tie up all Blue Jackets fans and make them cheer for a team in the previous Wings/Preds series, it would have been the Wings.
But now that hatred becomes a bit more personal with this upcoming series for the Wings. It is now time for the Red Wings to take on the Colorado Avs... Led by defenseman Adam ****ing Foote. You remember him? The guy who gave up on the Blue Jackets in the first month of the season, when they were among conference contenders. Yeah, that guy.
So tell me Blue Jackets fans? What reason do you have to truly root against Detroit? They maybe the New York Yankees of hockey, but is it personal with them?
As a hockey fan, this is one of the greatest rivalries in hockey. Remember a few years back some of the barnburners Colorado had with Detroit? The 2002 Western Conference Finals were quite a battle between the two teams. St. Patrick versus the Dominator. Detroit went on to win the seven game battle and the Stanley Cup Finals.
So Jackets fans, sit their and boo at everyone, but enjoy that what you are seeing is hockey at its best.
