Video: Elvis Merzlikins made a crazy save against Russia

Elvis Merzlikins is making a name in his own right for team Latvia. Although his team is nowhere near the top of the list in points in the tournament, he individually is showing why the Columbus Blue Jackets drafted him in 2014.

Merzlikins ended up making 37 saves in the game and Latvia still lost 4-0. While his name may not mean much now, he could be the future in Columbus. Until then Elvis has not left the building.
