Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Daniil Tarasov will get the starting nod for Tuesday's road game versus the Ottawa Senators. The 24-year-old will take over for Elvis Merzlikins who has started the club's last two games and six of the last eight. Tarasov has endured an inconsistent season for the lowly Blue Jackets as he actually started five games in a six-game stretch to show what he can do. Unfortunately, he has worked to a 3.79 goals-against average and an .881 save percentage across 10 outings, going 3-5-2 in that time. His -7.33 goals saved above average, as per Hockey Reference, ranks 59th of 69 qualified netminders. He will take on a Senators team that is tied for eighth with 3.38 goals per game on the season.--Brenton Kemp
