The year 2000 was a headline year for hockey in Columbus, OH as the Columbus Blue Jackets made their debut that October. In the Columbus Blue Jackets very first game they proved to be an impressive force against the Chicago Blackhawks, answering to a sold-out crowd. Still, their first home win would not come until 20 days later when they beat the Washington Capitals 3-1. This brand-new team went on to finish last in the Central Division with a 28-39-9-6 record, a respectable season for an infant NHL team. As a result, Columbus Blue Jackets tickets became an instant hit.
In the 2001-02 season they were awarded the honor of having Espen Knutsen become the first Blue Jacket to play in the All-Star Game for the Western conference. Knutsen proved his worth by scoring a goal and an assist for the later victorious World Team. Although this is a bright spot on the team's record, a darker one began to form as their entire season became overshadowed by the unexpected death of 13-year-old fan, Brittanie Cecil. She was tragically hit by a deflected puck while watching the Blue Jackets take on the Calgary Flames at Nationwide arena; two days later her young life was over and she became the first fan fatality in NHL history. Still, the Blue Jackets carried through the season by wearing a heart-shaped decal with her initials on their helmets throughout the rest of the year.
