Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Bends but doesn't break in barrage
Kevin Lankinen made 26 saves in a 4-3 win over Ottawa on Saturday.He bent but didn't break late in the third period when the Senators stormed the castle. Lankinen allowed two late goals in a 2:47 span with the Sens net empty and the extra attacker on the ice. One of those goals came while the Sens were up six-on-four, and Lanks barely had a chance. Still, it was a strong rebound for Lankinen, who'd been lit up for 16 goals in his previous four games. His play continues to give the Orcas a chance while Thatcher Demko (knee) is on IR.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Bested by former team
Kevin Lankinen stopped 16 of 20 shots in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Predators. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.Lankinen's former team got the better of him Sunday, though three of the four goals he let in were to players that weren't in Nashville last season. The 29-year-old has allowed at least four goals in three of his last four starts. He's down to an 8-3-2 record with a 2.71 GAA and a .901 save percentage through 13 games. Those are fine numbers, but Lankinen is trending in the wrong direction and may cede the crease to Arturs Silovs more regularly until a hot hand emerges between the two of them.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Yields four goals in loss
Kevin Lankinen stopped 27 of 31 shots in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Islanders. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.The Vancouver Canucks were listless through two periods before finding a bit more juice in the third. The damage had already been done, and Lankinen ended up on the hook for his second regulation loss in three games. The 29-year-old is 8-2-2 on the year while posting a 2.60 GAA and a .907 save percentage over 12 contests, but he's started to turn inconsistent amid his heavy workload early in the season. Arturs Silovs hasn't put in a competitive effort in the backup role, so Lankinen is likely to continue starting regularly. Both goalies should feature during this weekend's back-to-back as the Canucks host the Blackhawks on Saturday and the Predators on Sunday.
