The Vegas Golden Knights will create a dent in the Columbus Blue Jackets roster no matter who they take. That being said, they’d be mistaken to not take one certain player.
Blue Jackets goalie Sergei Bobrovsky will be protected, meaning Joonas Korpisalo will be exposed. If the Golden Knights want to immediately establish a solid back end, they should select Korpisalo.
A young player with a bright future
At only 23-years old, Korpisalo has displayed great potential. Every NHL team is able to protect one goalie, and not all of them have more than one goalie worth being taken.
