Given the quality of the opponent, Tarasov put together a decent performance in his first start of the campaign. Tarasov had a rough preseason and still appears to be the Blue Jackets' No. 2 option in goal, though the gap between him and Elvis Merzlikins isn't large. The Blue Jackets' next game is at home Tuesday versus the Panthers.
