For the first time since October 16th, the fifth game of the season, the Penguins will turn to Jarry between the pipes on Friday against the Columbus Blue Jackets. After a forgettable start to the season, posting an abysmal 5.47 GAA and .836 SV% in three outings (1-1-0), Jarry was sent down to the Wilke-Barre/Scranton Penguins (AHL) for a conditioning stint. In five AHL games (4-1-0), Jarry posted a solid 2.16 GAA and .926 SV%. The Penguins enter the action on Friday as -127 road favorites against a Blue Jackets club riding a six-game losing skid.
