The Columbus Blue Jackets recalled goaltender Joonas Korpisalo from his conditioning assignment in the American Hockey League on Sunday.

Korpisalo, 28, had hip surgery in March and was activated from the injured/non-roster list on Saturday.

He stopped 38 of 40 shots for the Cleveland Monsters in a 4-2 win against the Syracuse Crunch on Saturday night.

Korpisalo is 76-67-21 with a 3.04 goals-against average, a .902 save percentage and three shutouts in 182 games since making his NHL debut with the Blue Jackets in 2015-16.

Columbus entered Sunday’s road game against the New Jersey Devils in last place in the Metropolitan Division with just six points in nine games. Only the Los Angeles Kings (41) have allowed more goals than the Blue Jackets (37).
