from Aaron Portzline of the Columbus Dispatch,
With their losses mounting and the season slipping away, the Blue Jackets are taking a new approach to their goaltending.
Before practice yesterday, coach Ken Hitchcock informed the club that Steve Mason no longer is the club’s undisputed No. 1 goaltender.
Mathieu Garon will start at 9 tonight against the Phoenix Coyotes. If he plays well, Garon will keep playing, too, not resort to the backup role he’s held up to this point.
“Win and you’re in,” Hitchcock said. “That’s just where we’re at now. If a guy wins, he gets to keep going.
“We can’t wait any longer to get going.”

Martin Brodeur, Terry Sawchuk, Vadislav Tretiak, or Patrick Roy couldn’t help the Jackets. Their defense is just simply that terrible. It really doesn’t matter who is in net.
lol actually, those goalies would actually have the jackets in a playoff spot right now. if not better.
