Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Elvis Merzlikins is battling an illness and won't be able to play Tuesday versus Philadelphia. This will result in Daniil Tarasov starting for the second night in a row. Merzlikins has endured a horrible season so far, going 4-8-0 with a shockingly bad 4.68 goals-against average and a .864 save percentage. With Joonas Korpisalo (lower body) already out, the team is short of options between the pipes and head coach Brad Larsen has decided to go with Tarasov again. He's been providing plenty of saves for fantasy managers with a .915 save percentage, but Tarasov's campaign hasn't been pretty either, with the 23-year-old giving up over three goals per game (3.03) and posting a 2-6-1 record. Jet Greaves will be his backup.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
