Elvis Merzlikins Tries To Stay Perfect Against Dallas
3 years agoColumbus Blue Jackets goaltender Elvis Merzlikins will try to continue his perfect start to the season on Monday against the Dallas Stars. He boasts a 3-0-0 record ahead of the matchup with a 1.63 goals-against average and a .947 save percentage. Dating back to last season, the Latvian netminder has won four starts on the trot and hasn't suffered a regulation defeat in eight straight appearances. His confidence must be sky-high right now, but Dallas rolls into town with back-to-back wins and has the in-form Braden Holtby guarding the crease. The 2018 Stanley Cup winner owns a strong 15-8-2 career record against Columbus.
