Blue Jackets Return to 84-Game Format | Columbus News

The Columbus Blue Jackets just unveiled their 2026-27 schedule — a full 84-game season for the first time in over 30 years, packed with 26 back-to-backs, 49 games on Thu/Fri/Sat, and 12 on Sundays. They’ll face each division rival four times, with a big home stand Feb 20–Mar 1 against top teams, and four grueling four-game road trips. The NHL All-Star Game returns Feb 5-6 in Elmont, NY, and with no Olympic break, the team’s back to its traditional grind — fans get a clear roadmap, and the Blue Jackets face a tougher, more consistent schedule.
