Kaapo Kahkonen Tries To End Slump On Saturday
4 years agoMinnesota Wild goaltender Kaapo Kahkonen will look to put an end to a three-game losing streak on Saturday against San Jose. The 24-year-old had a very strong start to the season, but his record has now dropped to 12-9-0, and Kahkonen was hung out to dry in his last appearance when St. Louis put nine pucks past him in a 9-1 loss on April 9. Kahkonen has also lost to the Sharks during his current streak, and he's 2-2-0 overall in the matchup this season with a 2.50 goals-against average and a .923 save percentage. The Finnish netminder has allowed 2.69 goals per game for the whole year with a .909 save percentage and two shutouts. Martin Jones will start on a second consecutive night for San Jose.
