Mason's workload
By Victoria Matiash
UPDATE: Shawn Mitchell of the Dispatch suggests we should look for Steve Mason to start on Wednesday, and Sergei Bobrovsky to reclaim the goal-tending reigns Thursday.

Goaltender Steve Mason should get his chance to shine between the pipes in the next couple of days.
Aaron Portzline of the Columbus Dispatch reports the Columbus Blue Jackets "will likely start at least two of the next seven games in place of Sergei Bobrovsky", including an appearance Wednesday against the Phoenix Coyotes, or Thursday versus the Colorado Avalanche.
Even though Bobrovsky has been solid as the Blue Jackets' No. 1, seven games in a 11-day stretch is a hectic schedule for any netminder.
