Blue Jackets’ Joonas Korpisalo will get the nod
Columbus Blue Jackets netminder Joonas Korpisalo will start Friday’s home tilt with the Edmonton Oilers.
What It Means:
Korpisalo allowed two goals on 23 shots in the Blue Jackets’ loss on Monday. The defeat snapped a three-game winning streak for Korpisalo, who was 7-3-2 with a 2.46 goals against average and .922 save percentage in February. Tonight, he will face an Oilers team which has won three in a row, including a 4-0 win over the Philadelphia Flyers last night.
Our models view Korpisalo as the last-ranked goalie for Friday night. We project him to allow 2.62 goals on 27.67 shots with 41 percent chance of earning the win.
