Jon Gillies Starts Regular-Season Finale For Columbus
2 years agoColumbus Blue Jackets goaltender Jon Gillies will be between the pipes when the team completes its regular-season schedule Friday against Buffalo. The 29-year-old will make his third appearance of the season. He won his lone start 4-3 in overtime against Ottawa with a 24-save effort and Gillies also made a relief appearance last week against New Jersey, finishing with nine saves on 12 shots. He's been very leaky in the few games he has played, although Gillies' chances of success on Friday will be helped by the fact that Buffalo's leading sniper Tage Thompson (upper body) won't be in the lineup.
