Kevin Lankinen Starting On Monday
2 days agoVancouver Canucks goaltender Kevin Lankinen will get the starting nod on Monday afternoon against Team Canada. After serving as the backup in their opening contest, Lankinen got the starting nod in their previous game and picked up the victory, and will now get the opportunity to extend his streak. However, he will have a much tougher task on Monday, facing Team Canada. In his previous contest, Lankinen stopped 21 of the 24 shots he faced en route to defeating Team Sweden in overtime. Team Finland would advance to the 4 Nations Championship if they were to defeat Team Canada in regulation. Canada was able to win their first game of the tournament in overtime but fell to Team USA on Saturday evening. Lankinen is an intriguing high-upside play in DFS as he could see a high shot volume facing a high-powered Canada offense.
