    In his second year with the Columbus Blue Jackets, Ivan Provorov continued to play a major role on the blue line. He skated in all 82 games again (fun fact: in 9 NHL seasons, Provorov has missed just 3 games. He has played the maximum number of games 8 times) and he trailed only Zach Werenski in minutes per game by defensemen. In addition to a second pair role at even strength, he was frequently o...2025

Jordan Harris did a decent job catching up and marking Kaliyev as he came down the left side with speed, but Harris was unable to finish his check. He just bounced off, and Kaliyev was able to continue skating with speed behind the...2025
