Joonas Korpisalo Starts the Season for Columbus
6 years agoColumbus Blue Jackets goaltender Joonas Korpisalo will get the start for the Blue Jackets as they travel to Detroit to start the regular season. With the Blue Jackets starting a back-to-back set of games on the road, regular starter Sergei Bobrovsky will be in the net on Friday when the team returns to Columbus to play the Hurricanes. Korpisalo struggled last year with a .897 save percentage and has not finished a season above his career average .910 save percentage since his rookie season. The inconsistent back-up is a risky play tonight, even against a Red Wings team that finished 28th in scoring last season.
