The Blue Jackets 2015-2016 season has been one that fans have wanted to forget ever since the team started 0-8. There have been bright spots throughout the lineup with Cam Atkinson, Brandon Saad, and Boone Jenner being a few that come to mind, but the biggest bright spot has to be rookie goaltender Joonas Korpisalo. The Finnish goalie was the team’s 3rd round pick in 2012.
Joonas Korpisalo is a name that very few fans would have even known before the season because his first American professional hockey season was last year appearing in 3 games for the Blue Jackets’ AHL affiliate, Springfield Falcons.
