Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen Remains Sharp Versus Columbus
10 months agoBuffalo Sabres goaltender Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen registered his fourth win in five starts as the team snuck past Columbus 2-1 on Friday. Buffalo fell behind when Luukkonen allowed a power-play goal 12:05 into the game, but the Finnish netminder was immaculate with his work for the rest of the way, improving to 16-14-2 for the campaign. The 24-year-old has given up 2.48 goals with a .913 save percentage and boasts four shutouts for the season. Luukkonen has been one of the hottest goalies in the league lately, although he's also had a couple of favorable matchups. The next pair of games against Carolina and Florida will truly test his form.
