BLUE JACKETS TEAM NEWS CENTER

Mikhail Grigorenko - C

Columbus Blue Jackets

Mikhail Grigorenko remains committed to signing with the Columbus Blue Jackets, even after the NHL rejected his contract.

Added Apr 21 3:17 pm (EST)

Grigorenko and the Blue Jackets agreed to a one-year contract for the 2020-21 campaign on Monday, but the NHL rejected it, basically saying that the deal should have been filed on July 1. The Blue Jackets have since issued a statement announcing their intention to re-submit the contract at the appropriate time and Grigorenko is on board with that plan. “I’ve made my decision,” Grigorenko said. “I believe the contract is valid and it will be filed on July 1. I don’t think anything changes. There’s no way I’m going to talk to any other teams.” Grigorenko is returning to North America after scoring 19 goals and 41 points in 47 KHL contests this season.

A. Cirelli - F

TB

Anthony Cirelli registered an assist in Tampa Bay's 5-2 win against Dallas on Wednesday.

For the second straight game, Cirelli assisted on the game-winning goal. He has now also recorded a point in three of Tampa Bay's last four games. He's scored three goals and eight points in 22 playoff games this year.

J. Evans - F

MTL

Jake Evans feels being taken with the 207th overall pick was “almost a blessing.”

Evans didn't have any pressure on him when he was drafted by Montreal in 2014. He went to Notre Dame though and became an offensive force in the NCAA. After four seasons playing college hockey and one full campaign in the AHL, he made his NHL debut last season, scoring two goals and three points in 13 contests. He signed a two-year deal with Montreal on Wednesday with the second season of that contract being one-way. “Going to school, I was able to focus on getting better every year," Evans said. "When I signed my first contract, I kept the same mentality. I wanted to improve every year and keep going. Being a seventh-round draft pick (No. 207 overall), no one was expecting much from me and it’s a big surprise if I do well. That’s been my mentality, just keep working, and it’s also nice to prove people wrong.” He still has a lot of work ahead of him, but he's turned out to be a great pick for Montreal. He hasn't been the only player in that draft that's vastly exceeded expectations though. Ondrej Kase was taken with the 205th pick and Victor Olofsson was taken 181st overall. The very last player selected in that draft at 210th, Jacob Middleton, has also made it to the NHL.

D. Cozens - F

BUF

Dylan Cozens is looking forward to learning from Eric Staal.

The Sabres acquired Staal from Minnesota to slot in as their second-line center. As a result, Cozens is projected to start his rookie campaign either centering the third line or serving as a winger. In either scenario, there will be less pressure on Cozens to succeed out of the gate. On top of that, Staal could prove to be a valuable mentor for the 19-year-old forward. "That's huge,” Cozens said of Staal. “You look at his resume and he's won a Stanley Cup and he's been around for a while. He's a veteran in the league so to be able to hopefully go in and learn from him and look up to him as a role model and a guy to show me what it takes to play in the NHL, that'll be huge.” Staal only has one season left on his contract, but in an ideal world for the Sabres, he'll do well in 2020-21 and pave the way for Cozens to play a bigger role in 2021-22.

S. Stamkos - C

TB

Steven Stamkos said after Game 3 on Wednesday night that it's too early to tell if he will play on Friday in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final.

Stamkos tiptoed around the question when he was asked if he tweaked something during the first period. He said there's an issue that he's working through and he will wait to see what happens from here. Stamkos scored a goal in his return to the lineup on Wednesday night in a 5-2 win over Dallas, but he logged just 2:47 of ice time. He initially didn't come out for the start of the second period, but then he eventually emerged from the dressing room. However, Stamkos stayed on the bench for the rest of the contest, while cheering on his teammates.

A. Radulov - F

DAL

Alexander Radulov left Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final in the third period after he crashed into the boards.

Radulov tried to hit Tampa Bay's Blake Coleman, but missed and ended up going hard into the end boards. Coach Rick Bowness didn't have an update on Radulov's condition following the contest. Radulov went to the locker room following the collision and briefly returned to the bench, but he didn't get back on the ice. His status is unclear for Friday's Game 4 matchup versus the Lightning at this time.

A. Vasilevskiy - G

TB

Andrei Vasilevskiy allowed two goals on 24 shots in Wednesday’s 5-2 Game 3 win over the Dallas Stars.

It was a fairly easy night for Vasilevskiy, who mostly got to sit back and watch his teammates win possession and on the scoreboard. The Russian netminder was beat by a quick Jason Dickinson shot in the opening frame, and then again in the third on a weird bouncing puck. Tampa are now two wins away from winning the Stanley Cup, as Vasilevskiy sees his record improve to 16-6.

A. Khudobin - G

DAL

Anton Khudobin allowed five goals on 29 shots in Wednesday’s 5-2 Game 3 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning.

A tough outing for Khudobin, who just didn’t have the magic tonight to deny Tampa’s shooters. With Game’s 3 and 4 scheduled for Friday and Saturday night, head coach Rick Bowness decided he’d give his goaltender the third period off as he tries to keep him fresh. It’ll be interesting to see if Ben Bishop will recover from his injury in time for one of the back-to-back contests but we’d bet on seeing Khudobin in both of those games. The 34-year-old goaltender will see his record fall to 13-8.
