Why they might be annoying:

Their team logo is a bug holding a hockey stick.
They chose a bug as their logo exemplify 'qualities like hard work and resourcefulness.'
They lost their first game 5-3.
They ended their first season by going 28-39-9-6.
A 13-year old fan was hit in the head with a deflected puck and died two days later. She became the first ever NHL fan fatality.
They ended their second season by going 22-47-8-5.
They play in the NHL's western conference even though they are located in Ohio.
Their inception as a team can be attributed to the expansion-crazy movement of the 1990's.

Why they might not be annoying:

Apparently, 'Blue Jackets' is a reference to the uniforms the state of Ohio made for the Union troops during the Civil War.
Their home, Nationwide Arena, has housed many country music stars, including Tim McGraw and Faith Hill.
