There’s certainly a lot of questions going forward in regards to the Columbus Blue Jackets goaltending situation. There’s uncertainly with how long Sergei Bobrovsky will be with the team and Joonas Korpisalo‘s potential has come into question, as a result much of the hype for the future goes onto the prospects.
The prospect who’s widely considered the most “NHL ready” is Latvia native Elvis Merzlikins. He’s a top goaltender in the Swiss National League. There’s no guarantee that he’ll make the jump to North America next season, however Swiss media already sees it as a possibility.
