Nolan Lalonde, the 20-year-old goalie from Kingston, Ontario, and Blue Jackets prospect pulled off something that Columbus fans have always pined for - A goalie goal. The reigning OHL Goaltender of the week scored a goal last night and led his Greyhounds to a 5-3 win over the Flint Firebirds.
The Jackets weren't given much of a chance in this game, but they played a true "Team Game" to upset Cup favorite Toronto. They've now outscored the Maple Leafs 11-3 in two games this season.

The Blue Jackets (23-18-7) have needed Fantilli, who was up against Toronto's top line featuring Auston Matthews most of Wednesday, to step into the No. 1 centre role this month with Sean Monahan out injured. Playing down the middle in the NHL is difficult at the best of times. It's even harder when you're still learning the pro game on the fly.
