What Signing Kevin Lankinen To A Five-Year Extension Means For The Vancouver Canucks
In both six-on-five situations, the Finns rolled all forwards: Granlund, Hintz, Aleksander Barkov, Mikko Rantanen, Sebastian Aho and Patrik Laine. Finland’s blue line was its weakness. Its grinding and relentless forwards pulled them back within a goal.
Lankinen started this NHL season with a 10-0-0 road mark to surpass Glenn Hall (1965-66) and Cam Talbot (2022-23). It’s why giving the affable stopper the nod Saturday over veteran Juuse Saros, who is struggling in a 6-1 opening loss to the U.S., was a no-brainer.
