CS-CBJ-WerenskiNorris Is Daniil Tarasov back? It sure has looked like it in the last two games. Tarry, as he is affectionately known, has played out of his mind the last two games, going 1-0-1 in the process. In those two games against the Philadelphia Flyers and New York Rangers, without him those two games are losses and I don't think anyone could argue that. Against Philly, he allowed two goals and made 23 shots for a final SV% of .920% in 65 minutes of gameplay. The CBJ would win in a shootout. Last night at MSG, Tarasov became the first goalie ever to record his first career shutout, and lose that game. He stopped all 26 Ranger shots in regulation and overtime but would give up the loan shootout goal to lose to the Rangers. He made a few highlight-reel saves which you can see below. Is Tarasov back? Only time will tell as he needs more starts to answer that. One thing's for certain though - If he continues to play like this, the Jackets playoff push could become even more real. With Elvis and Tarry locked in, and if the team can continue their historic goal-scoring pace, they may just shock the entire hockey world and make the playoffs. With 36 games left in the season, the Jackets currently sit in the first wild card spot and are making some noise.
