Kevin Lankinen Faces Columbus In 14th Start
4 years agoChicago Blackhawks goaltender Kevin Lankinen will be between the pipes for the 14th time this season in Tuesday's road game at Columbus. The 25-year-old rookie is enjoying a nice debut campaign with a 7-3-3 record, a 2.43 goals-against average, a .927 save percentage, and one shutout. He has gone 2-2-0 against the Jackets with a 2.78 goals-against average and a .918 save percentage. The Hawks could get Connor Murphy (hip) back Tuesday, so Lankinen will have some more quality among the defensemen playing in front of him. He's also guarding the cage for a hot team, as the Blackhawks are in great form with six wins in their last eight games, so Lankinen is a strong choice for fantasy managers on Tuesday.
