The Blue Jackets made a number of significant changes to their roster this off-season, but GM Scott Howson chose to stick with Steve Mason as the team's starting netminder. The 23-year-old keeper has posted poor statical seasons the last two seasons after he busted onto the NHL scene with a superb rookie campaign. Columbus is hoping that a new goalie coach, in Ian Clark, and an upgraded offensive attack will help get Mason more settled in the crease this year. He is a risky option given his recent struggles, but a new direction and fresh faces in the organization could make him an interesting player to gamble on in 2011-12.
