Joonas Korpisalo Gets Another Chance On Monday
4 years agoColumbus Blue Jackets goaltender Joonas Korpisalo will guard the crease in Monday's matchup against Chicago. It's going to be his first appearance since the 26-year-old gave up three goals on six shots and got pulled with less than six minutes played in a 6-4 loss to Tampa on April 8. Elvis Merzlikins made two consecutive starts but couldn't lead the team to victory. Korpisalo has had an awful time all year, posting a 3.10 goals-against average and a .899 save percentage while winning only nine of 27 starts. It's going to be even tougher from here on out as well, with the Jackets trading captain Nick Foligno to Toronto on Sunday and shutting down a few guys for the year last week, including Zach Werenski.
