Jet Greaves Projected as Starting Goalie for Blue Jackets' Opener

Jet Greaves was the first goalie off during Thursday's morning skate, indicating he will draw the Opening Night start at home against the Buffalo Sabres. Greaves saw a career-high workload during the 2025-26 campaign, making 55 regular-season appearances and going 26-19-9 with a 2.60 GAA and .908 save percentage. While new backup Cam Talbot is capable of handling a hefty workload, Greaves should begin the regular season as the Blue Jackets' clear number-one netminder.
