Jet Greaves - NHL News & Rumors

Could see plenty of work early in year Greaves will be in line to see plenty of work early in the 2026-27 regular season if Elvis Merzlikins (shoulder) is forced to miss time, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports Thurs...

Impact After excelling over a limited sample during the 2024-25 campaign, Greaves saw a sharp uptick in work last season and remained effective, going 26-19-9 with a 2.60 GAA and .908 save percentage across 55 regular-season appearances. Although Greaves served as the Blue Jackets' No. 1 netminder last year, he still had to split some time with Merzlikins, who made 30 regular-season appearances. However, Merzlikins underwent successful shoulder surgery Monday and doesn't yet have a timetable to return, so Greaves could see even more work early in the 2026-27 season if Merzlikins' procedure forces him to miss games. If Merzlikins is sidelined to begin the year, Pheonix Copley would be in line to serve as the team's No. 2 netminder.

Falls to Caps in finale Greaves made 19 saves in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to Washington.

Over 55 outings, Greaves posted a 26-19-9 record with a 2.60 GAA and .908 save percentage. Greaves becomes a restricted free agent this spring, but expect the Blue Jackets to make a strong push to lock the 25-year-old netminder up on a long-term deal.

Slated to start Tuesday Greaves is expected to start at home against the Capitals on Tuesday, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.

Impact Greaves holds a 26-18-9 record with a 2.61 GAA and a .908 save percentage across 54 appearances in 2025-26 - a significant step up in workload from the 11 outings he logged with Columbus a season ago, when he posted a stellar 1.91 GAA and .938 save percentage. The 25-year-old netminder has developed into a reliable NHL starter after working his way up from the OHL and AHL without ever being drafted, spending parts of four seasons with the Cleveland Monsters before earning a full-time NHL role. He's a decent fantasy option for spot starts given his solid peripherals, though his win total and save percentage make him a streaming-tier option rather than a must-start in most formats.

Tagged with loss Sunday Greaves stopped 19 of 22 shots in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Bruins.

Impact Greaves started on the second leg of this back-to-back set after allowing two goals on 20 shots in a 5-2 win over the Canadiens, but he couldn't lead Columbus to victory this time around. Don't be surprised if Greaves also gets the starting nod for the regular-season finale against Washington on Tuesday, though his recent results have been inconsistent at best. Over his last five starts, Greaves has gone 2-3-0 with a 2.81 GAA and an .892 save percentage.

Starting again Sunday Greaves will patrol the home crease against Boston on Sunday, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports.

Impact Greaves is coming off a 20-save performance in Saturday's 5-2 win over Montreal, and he will get the second half of the Blue Jackets' back-to-back against the Bruins on Sunday. He has a 26-17-9 record this campaign with a 2.60 GAA and a .908 save percentage across 53 appearances. Boston sits 12th in the league with 3.26 goals per game this season.

Strong outing vs. Montreal Greaves stopped 20 of 22 shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Canadiens.

Impact Greaves was beaten in the first and third period, but the offense provided him enough support to cruise his way to a win on the road. Greaves has been alternating wins and losses over his four starts, a stretch in which he's posted a 2.75 GAA with an .898 save percentage. It remains to be seen if Greaves will also start Sunday against the Bruins on the second leg of a back-to-back set.

Impact Greaves has been the Blue Jackets' No. 1 goaltender this season, posting a 25-27-9 record with a 2.61 GAA and a .908 save percentage over 52 games this season. The Canadiens are seventh in scoring, lighting the lamp 271 times in 2025-26.

Zero help from teammates Greaves made 19 saves in a 5-0 loss to the Sabres on Thursday. He allowed four goals.

Impact Greaves is doing everything he can behind a Blue Jackets squad that has lost seven of their past eight games. The Blue Jackets are two points behind the third-place Flyers, who also lost Thursday. Greaves does his part -- he has a 2.61 GAA and .908 save percentage in 52 games played, and there's no reason to expect that to change the rest of the way.
