Elvis Merzlikins - Starting in Pittsburgh Merzlikins will patrol the road crease against Pittsburgh on Tuesday, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.
Impact Merzlikins struggled in his last start Saturday against the Senators, surrendering four goals on only 23 shots before being replaced by Michael Hutchinson in the second period of the eventual 5-2 loss. He'll try to get back in the win column in a road matchup with a Penguins team that's averaging 3.52 goals per game at home this campaign, eighth in the NHL.

Corson Ceulemans - Signs entry-level contract Ceulemans signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Blue Jackets on Tuesday.
Impact Columbus selected Ceulemans with the No. 25 overall pick in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft. The 19-year-old defenseman produced eight goals and 23 points in 33 games with the University of Wisconsin during his sophomore season in 2022-23. Ceulemans will report to Cleveland on an AHL tryout contact for the remainder of the year.

Impact Merzlikins made seven saves in the first period without allowing a goal, and the Blue Jackets established a 3-0 lead. Michael Hutchinson took over in net for Merzlikins, who can be considered day-to-day.

Senators look to keep win streak going, host the Blue Jackets

The Ottawa Senators head into a matchup with the Columbus Blue Jackets as winners of four straight games
MARCH 4, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Patrik Laine - Two points against Seattle Laine scored a power-play goal and added an even-strength assist in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Kraken.
Impact He opened the scoring midway through the second period, snapping a shot from the faceoff circle into the top corner past Philipp Grubauer, but Laine didn't get much help from his teammates the rest of the way. The 24-year-old has heated up recently, collecting four goals and 10 points over the last nine games, with half of that production (three goals, two helpers) coming on the power play. Laine is talented enough to be a fantasy asset down the stretch despite the patchwork roster around him.
MARCH 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Elvis Merzlikins - Falls to Kraken Merzlikins turned aside 31 of 34 shots in Friday's 4-2 loss to Seattle.
Impact The Kraken's final goal was scored into an empty net. Merzlikins has been nothing if not consistent over the last month-plus, and he's given up exactly three goals in a remarkable seven straight starts. Unfortunately, he plays for a team averaging just 2.58 goals per game, 30th in the league. With the roster cleared of competition at the trade deadline, Merzlikins should be the Blue Jackets' unquestioned No. 1 netminder down the stretch, although that role may not translate into many wins.
MARCH 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Adam Boqvist - Two-point effort Friday Boqvist scored an even-strength goal and added a power-play assist in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Kraken.
Impact The 22-year-old is the most offensively gifted player currently healthy on the Columbus blue line, and Boqvist is having a nice run with three goals and eight points over the last eight games, including four helpers on the power play. With the Blue Jackets having nothing to play for but the best chance at landing Connor Bedard in the draft, they can afford to live with Boqvist's occasional defensive lapses and give him all the ice time he can handle to aid his development.
MARCH 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Erik Gudbranson - Makes impact Friday Gudbranson picked up an assist and added six blocked shots, four shots on net, two hits and a plus-1 rating in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Kraken.
Impact The 31-year-old has been a blocked shot machine lately, recording multiple blocks in nine of the last 11 games and topping out at seven in a win over the Jets on Feb. 16. He's up to a career-high 125 blocked shots this season. Gudbranson was considered overpaid when he signed with Columbus this offseason on a four-year, $16 million deal, but coming out of the trade deadline, the stay-at-home defender is the only veteran voice left on a very young Blue Jackets blue line, and he should see big minutes the rest of the way.
MARCH 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Alexander Wennberg returns to haunt Blue Jackets and prove 'he's got a good shot' Wennberg, whose contract was bought out after the 2019-20 season, scored a power-play goal to key a 4-2 Kraken win in Columbus.
