Kaapo Kahkonen Will Go For Fifth Straight Victory
4 years agoMinnesota Wild goaltender Kaapo Kahkonen will aim for a fifth straight win in Saturday's rematch with the Kings. Cam Talbot returned to action with a 27-save effort and beat Los Angeles on Friday 3-1, and now it's up to Kahkonen to sweep the two-game set. The 24-year-old has been in fantastic form lately, allowing two or fewer goals in every contest during his four-game winning streak. He has taken his record to 7-4-0 and has a 2.47 goals-against average for the year with a .917 save percentage. Minnesota has won five of the last six home games against the Kings, so Kahkonen's success looks set to continue.
