Lyle Odelein, the first captain in Columbus Blue Jackets history, has died at 58.
Bob McElligott remembers sitting down with Odelein during the Blue Jackets' 25th anniversary celebration last season, and how clearly he appreciated his place in franchise history. Bob also shares Jody Shelley's stories of how Odelein took him under his wing as a rookie, and a note from a viewer who skated on the first Junior Blue Jackets teams and remembers what Odelein told the kids: don't get swept up in the competition, and remember that hockey is fun.
The Blue Jackets held a moment of silence before Saturday's game vs Utah to honor Odelein.
