Joonas Korpisalo Takes On Blackhawks Tuesday Night
4 years agoColumbus Blue Jackets goaltender Joonas Korpisalo will earn his 13th start of the season in Tuesday's matchup with the Blackhawks. Elvis Merzlikins (lower body) is back on the shelf and listed week-to-week, so Korpisalo is set for a busy period. He has a 5-4-3 record for the season with a 3.46 goals-against average and a .889 save percentage, so the 26-year-old hasn't had a fun time this season. He does, however, own a good 2-0-1 against Chicago, registering a 2.99 goals-against average and a .899 save percentage in the three meetings. Korpisalo will have a new-look blue line playing in front of him, as Columbus will be without Michael Del Zotto (lower body).
