Joonas Korpisalo Goes For Revenge Against Stars
4 years agoColumbus Blue Jackets goaltender Joonas Korpisalo will be between the pipes for Thursday's rematch with the Dallas Stars, who beat the Jackets on Tuesday 6-3. Korpisalo saw five pucks fly past him with 23 shots before he got pulled in the contest during the second period. Elvis Merzlikins came in and produced nine saves, but the Latvian now finds himself on the injured reserve with an upper-body injury after getting hurt in Wednesday's practice, and Korpisalo is about to get a lot of burn. The 26-year-old carries a 2-2-2 record for the season with a 2.84 goals-against average and a .918 save percentage. The Stars can pick apart any team, so it's best to avoid Korpisalo on Thursday.
