Merzlikins had a rough 2022-23 campaign, posting a 7-18-2 record, a 4.23 GAA and an .876 save percentage in 30 games. Still, given the Blue Jackets' alternatives in goal -- Daniil Tarasov and Jet Greaves -- Merzlikins is going into the season with a fresh opportunity to be Columbus' starter. The Blue Jackets were a disaster defensively last season and perhaps new head coach Mike Babcock can help with that, which would in turn make Merzlikins' job a little easier. The squad also hired Niklas Backstrom to serve as the new goaltending coach, so Merzlikins will get to work with someone who should have a fresh perspective on his struggles and the possible solutions. Any goaltender has the potential to be a pleasant surprise, but the most likely scenario is still that Merzlikins will finish 2023-24 with a GAA above 3.00 and a save percentage below .900.
