Bobrovsky loving life again in Jackets crease: "You write your own story. Enjoy it!"
Sergei Bobrovsky takes a long pause to consider what has fuelled his resurgence in the Columbus crease this season.
There’s a look of contentment on his 28-year-old face.
“I think I just more appreciate what I have,” says the Russia goaltender. “I’m happy to come to the rink every day and work hard on my game and just play games and go out on a game shoulder to shoulder (with) my (teammates)…and just enjoy the wins with them.”
Evidently, a shift in approach between the ears is behind a turnaround between the pipes. Bobrovsky has been a big reason for the Blue Jackets stunning rise into the NHL’s elite class this season, the undrafted netminder from a city in Siberia leading the league with 28 wins while sitting near the top of the pack with a .929 save percentage.
