But with what the Jackets lost in the offseason, Torts is doing a hell of a job this year.

Nope. Still turds.





(But seriously.....to lose Bobrovsky and Panarin and have literally half of the opening night lineup on the IR and STILL be ahead of last year’s point total at the AS break is ridiculous. Torts has to be the front runner for the Jack Adams right now.)

Zach Werenski scored 1:54 into overtime and the Columbus Blue Jackets extended their points streak to nine games with a 1-0 win over the Florida Panthers on Tuesday night.

Werenski picked up the puck off the right boards, circled around to the bottom of the circle and beat former teammate Sergei Bobrovski, who had made 45 saves until then.

Both teams had some good looks, especially late in the game, but both goalies were outstanding.

Elvis Merzlikins had 32 saves in picking up his fourth shutout of the season. Columbus has won eight of nine and hasn't lost in regulation since Jan. 9, a streak of 8-0-1.

The Panthers lost for just the second time in their last nine games.

Bobrovsky is 0-2 playing in Columbus since bolting the Blue Jackets for Florida via free agency. He also lost on New Year's Eve, with Werenski picking up a hat trick against his old teammate in a 4-1 win.

Merzlikins extended his win streak to seven games. He's 11-2 since taking over the starting job in that Dec. 31 game after Joonas Korpisalo went down with a knee injury.
