Goaltenders
Andrew Shortridge
Sizeable netminder that fits the NHL mold, he’s 6-4 and plays a blocking style
Harri Säteri
Capable of being a decent NHL backup goalie.
Ilya Konovalov
Average-sized goalie who lacks pedigree but has been one of the best goalies in the KHL as a 20-year-old which is hard to ignore.
Patrik Rybár
Potential back-up goalie.
Kristers Gudlevskis
The numbers game has limited his opportunities and when he got one he didn't seize it. Upside is there but clock is ticking.
Jake Kielly
Talented netminder with decent size and athleticism.
Kirill Ustimenko
He is a good fallback to give a longer look in the off-chance that both Hart and Sandstrom fall through, still years away from being an NHL fixture though.
Olivier Rodrigue
Agile goaltender with good reflexes and the ability to stay poised when under pressure. He’ll need some time in the AHL before being NHL ready.
Jack Campbell
Solid NHL backup with 1A/1B upside.
Peter Thome
Thome’s got the size, intangibles, and early-career experience to be an NHL winner. With a crowded Blue Jacket crease, the path to Columbus is not easy.
