Lankinen gave up six goals on 38 shots in a 7-6 shootout loss to Columbus last Friday, as Thatcher Demko has regained his status as Vancouver's top netminder. The 29-year-old Lankinen is 24-14-9 with four shutouts, a 2.66 GAA and an .899 save percentage across 47 appearances this season. Vegas ranks sixth in the NHL with 3.35 per game this campaign.
