08:42 AM ET 01.25 | While the Blue Jackets rest during the All-Star break, some diehard fans have other plans. [Carl Bennett] has spent, by his own conservative estimate, more than $80,000 in tickets, beer, food, merchandise and travel as he has followed the team over a dozen years. He would like to keep investing. He does not know if he will. He is not alone. On Saturday, as the NHL stands down for the All-Star break, some Jackets fans are planning to gather in front of Nationwide to demand the ouster of team president Mike Priest and general manager Scott Howson. The summons first went out on the web on Monday night -- right after the Jackets staggered through a 4-1 loss at Nashville.

the original call out was actually to go do an "Occupy" at the majority owner's business, not at Nationwide... but the season ticket holders should have a huge gripe with the handling of this season

They are also demanding the ouster of Rick Nash back to where he first came from. I support that move.

The are BlueJackets fans? Everytime the Flyers play them in Columbus, it is to a half-empty stadium.

If a fanbase for a team that is irrelevant complains, do they really make a sound?

FAIL FOR NAIL!!!!!
I think if the Jackets can keep up the "Bad Work" they should have a immediate upgrade next year with Nail. Sorta like when Lebron went to the Cavs but lets hope it ends better!

We really want to support the team but it seems like nobody in the front office has a clue. Scratch that, NOBODY in the front office has a clue!

wish I was on board with the Fail for Nail, but unfortunately the last few Russian/Europeon prospects haven't worked out so well for the Jackets
