It’s time to catch up on all the latest hockey news, memes and more in this week’s edition of Social Roundup, presented by Truly Hard Seltzer!
TikTok-renowned group The Hockey Guys visited Nationwide Arena on Sunday night to support the Blue Jackets and meet up with fans. The group of friends who post hockey-related videos has more than 1.3 million followers and drew a crowd last night for their visit. Thanks for visiting Columbus!
Yes, Sunday night was real. Blue Jackets rookie Cole Sillinger scored his first ever NHL hat trick against the Vegas Golden Knights during the CBJ’s 6-4 victory. Yeah… he did that.
Nationwide Arena had a very special guest this week who has a thing for chicken parmesan. ESPN broadcaster John Buccigross enjoys rating fan submissions of chicken parmesan recipies, so it was only fitting that Columbus shows him how it’s really done.
We’ve had a couple milestones this week, so let’s recognize the accomplishments of some of our favorite Blue Jackets!
Zach Werenski reached 224 career points, the most ever in franchise history by a defenseman.
Not only did goaltender Elvis Merzlikins bring home a win Sunday night, but he also played his 100th national hockey league game.
The Ohio State women’s hockey team was recognized on Sunday night for its achievements so far this season and securing a spot in the NCAA Frozen Four. The Buckeyes will take on Yale in the semifinals this Friday at Penn State, and you can catch all the action on ESPN+. Congrats and good luck to our fellow Columbus hockey team!
