Jack Roslovic was chosen as the Blue Jackets' 2021-22 Community MVP for his foundation, Rosie's Gear for Goals, which gives back to the community that helped him become who he is today. Roslovic is also on a tear, having scored nine times in the last seven games.

Columbus raised him, now @JRoslovic96 is helping young hockey players in his community achieve their goals on and off the ice. 💙❤️

Last week, newbie Nick Blankenburg tallied his first-ever NHL point, and this week it was Kent Johnson's turn. Congrats KJ, welcome to the club!

Speaking of Blankenburg, the defenseman from Michigan scored his first NHL goal for the Jackets on Sunday, AND it was the game winner! There were nothing but smiles in Nationwide Arena after this one.

These guys were on the ice at Michigan together just two weeks ago, and now, they are facing off on the big stage. Blankenburg and Johnson met former U-M teammate Thomas Bordeleau when playing the San Jose Sharks.
