Korpisalo will start in the blue paint Saturday, facing the Senators at home.

Analysis:

The young Finn has put up a brick wall between the posts over his last five contests, crafting a .932 save percentage in that span. Showing impressive endurance, he's punched out late in three of the past five games as the Blue Jackets initiated the shootout stanza with the Canucks, Islanders and Ducks, respectively. Korpisalo should have his hands full against a Senators team that averages 2.8 goals per game, tied with the Kings for seventh best in the whole league.
