Aaron Portzline of The Athletic: Can assume that the Columbus Blue Jackets and pending restricted free agent goaltenders Joonas Korpisalo and Elvis Merzlikins have held some contract talks.
Merzlikins did say last week that he didn’t know if there were any.
Both goalies are a year away from unrestricted free agency, so any deal will likely be for at least two years. Korpisalo and Merzlikins may not want to go more than three or four years.

Would guess that they would sign in the $2.
