Following a rough performance Friday, Boone Jenner and the Columbus Blue Jackets look to rebound Sunday in a 5:00 p.m. start against the New Jersey Devils.
Elvis Merzlikins finally lost a game, the Blue Jackets couldn't beat Igor Shesterkin, and the third pairing of Gabriel Carlsson and Scott Harrington struggled mightily.
Max Domi's back in the lineup, but Yegor Chinakhov's out. Chinakhov hasn't been bad, but he hasn't been great either. There's a lot of room to grow for the young Russian.
Max Domi is already back from a rib fracture and will rejoin the Columbus Blue Jackets Friday night as they face the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden.
In order to win in the NHL, teams need to be consistent. Six games in, Brad Larsen likes his teams' effort, but knows that they still have a long way to go.
Over Elvis Merzlikins' first four games, he's been nothing short of the best goaltender in the NHL. With him in the net, the Blue Jackets can beat anyone.
