The Union Blue return to the ice, and this time it will be a home and home series with the New Jersey Devils. Tonight’s first contest is in Newark, prior to the weekend at home.
This is the first time battling since Halloween night, where Patrik Laine’s slap shot was a highlight goal of the year for the team. Now, without goalies Scott Wedgewood (ARI) and Jonathan Bernier (out for the season), they are using their two youngest goalies on the roster. With a COVID outbreak, both lineups are hampered.
Projected Lineups
Thomas Tatar—Jack Hughes—Jesper Bratt
Jesper Boqvist—Nico Hischer—Alexander Holtz
Janne Kuokkanen—Dawson Mercer—Marian Studenic
Nolan Foote—Michael McLeod—Nathan Bastian
Jonas Siegenthaler—Damon Severson
Ryan Graves—PK Subban
Ty Smith—Christian Jaros
Mackenzie Blackwood
Akira Schmid
Scratched—Jon Gilles, Mason Geersteen, Jesper Boqvist, Kevin Bahl
Injured— Miles Wood, Jonathan Bernier, Andreas Johnsson, Dougie Hamilton, Pavel Zacha, Yegor Sharagnovich
Columbus Blue Jackets
Patrik Laine—Cole Sillinger—Jakub Voracek
Oliver Bjorkstrand—Boone Jenner—Emil Bemstrom
Gustav Nyquist—Sean Kuraly—Mac Domi
Eric Robinson—Jack Roslovic—Yegor Chinakov
Jake Bean—Adam Boqvist
Vladislav Gavrikov—Andrew Peeke
Dean Kukan—Jake Christiansen
Joonas Korpisalo
Jean-Francois Berube
Scratched— Gabriel Carlsson, Liam Foudy, Gregory Hoffman, Scott Harrington
Injured— Zach Werenski, Gavin Bayreuther, Nathan Gerbe, Elvis Merzlikins, Daniil Tarasov, Alexandre Texier, Justin Danforth
Players to Watch:
New Jersey— Jack Hughes— after signing a 8 year, $64M million dollar extension, he is going to show he is the most underpaid contract beginning in year 2.
Columbus— Joonas Korpisalo— Korpi is at an all time low in value, and has to bring the team and himself into the winning column.
