With only the Stanley and Calder Cups still up for grabs, all player’s associated with the Columbus Blue Jackets have hung up the skates and hit the links. GM Jarmo Kekalainen and his scouting staff have put together a solid squad of prospects over the last few seasons and many had solid postseason runs.
None were more notable than the performance of goalie Elvis Merzlinkins. The 24-year-old goalie had a spectacular postseason for HC Lugano in the Swiss League. After an average regular season, Elvis led his team to a game seven in the finals.
