Good to see Karl playing well and proving he can play at a higher level than college. I would love to see him get a chance at some backup time with the Jackets after the All-star break to see what he can do with the big boys. No chance of him taking over for Marc Denis anytime soon, but I have not been impressed with what Labbe has done, plus, it would just be cool to see Karl in the NHL.

Karl probably doesn't have much of a chance of regularaly backing up for the Blue Jackets as they have Pascal Leclaire, the high draft pick. Even though Karl has out played him pretty much the whole year, he and Leclair have been splitting time in Syracuse. When Labbe got hurt early this year, Leclair was the one who got called up, not Goehring. I'd like to see Karl play too, but when the Ble Jackets have all this money tied up in a young goalie, he is probably going to get many more chances then a goalie who the Blue Jackets just signed as a free agent. Karl isn't neccessarily considered a goalie for the future for Columbus while Leclair is. :)

Yeah, I know, wishful thinking on my part I suppose. They do have a lot invested in Leclaire, but you never know what can happen. It would still be cool to see him come up for a game or two just for fun and giggles and see what he has to offer the big boys.

My friend and I got seats right behind Denis when he was in net for Columbus in the game against Boston a few weeks ago. I convinced my friend to join me: "You're Not KARL! You're Not KARL!"

Who knows if Denis could hear us -- and no one around us knew what we were talking about -- but we still had fun!
