Blue Jackets Sunday Gathering: Werenski endures the longest goal drought of his careerWerenski is tied for 13th among NHL defensemen with 28 assists but has just one goal this season.
NHL Highlights | Lightning vs. Blue Jackets - February 10, 2024
10 months ago
Elvis Merzlikins - Rough stretch continuesMerzlikins made 33 saves in a 4-2 loss to Tampa Bay on Saturday.
ImpactHe allowed three goals. Merzlikins has had a rough stretch over the last couple weeks. He's 3-3-3 in his last 10 starts with 33 goals allowed in that span. And while he has formally asked for a trade, Merzlikins' performance behind a porous young team has made any move difficult. He's 9-11-7 with a 3.21 GAA and .904 save percentage in 29 starts. Merzlikins is a match-up play at best.

Boone Jenner - Snaps nine-game goal droughtJenner scored twice in a 4-2 loss to Tampa Bay on Saturday.
ImpactBoth goals came in the third when the Jackets roared back from a 3-0 deficit. Jenner scored at the right post off a cross-crease pass at 12:22, and he then made it 3-2 at 15:50 with a redirection on the power play. The goals snapped a nine-game goal drought for the forward. Jenner has 15 goals and five assists in 36 games this season. While those goals are appealing, Jenner isn't a consistent-enough producer to help your fantasy squad.

Nikita Kucherov - Seven-game, 14-point streakKucherov put up two assists in a 4-2 win over Columbus on Saturday.
ImpactThe NHL's leading scorer extended his point streak to seven games and 14 points, including nine assists. Kucherov leads the NHL with 89 points (33 goals, 56 assists). He's on the verge of his fourth 100-plus point season in his last six years and will certainly get Hart votes.

Andrei Vasilevskiy - Eighth win in last 10 startsVasilevskiy made 33 saves Saturday in a 4-2 win over the Blue Jackets.
ImpactThe game was tighter than the score indicated. The Bolts went into the third with a 2-0 lead, but roared back with two goals by Boone Jenner. The Bolts secured the win with an empty-net goal with 48 seconds left. Vasilevskiy is 8-2-0 in his last 10 starts to improve his season stats to 17-11-0, 2.79 GAA and .901 save percentage.

Haydn Fleury - Back from injuryFleury (hand) was plus-1 and had four blocks in 22:07 of ice time in a 4-2 win over Columbus on Saturday.
ImpactFleury had missed 14 games with a hand injury after blocking a shot. He doesn't shine in any specific fantasy category, so he's best left on the wire.
