Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Between pipes versus Nashville
Lankinen will defend the home crease Sunday against the Predators, Ben Kuzma of Postmedia reports.
Lankinen will have a chance to get back in the win column Sunday against one of his former teams -- the Finnish netminder spent the past two seasons with the Predators. The 29-year-old sports an 8-2-2 record, .907 save percentage and 2.60 GAA through 12 outings with Vancouver. Nashville ranks last in the NHL with 2.28 goals per game across 18 contests.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Bested by former team
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
Lankinen stopped 27 of 31 shots in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Islanders. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.
The 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.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Set to start Thursday
Lankinen is expected to start at home against the Islanders on Thursday, per Andrew Gross of Newsday.
Lankinen turned aside 28 of 29 shots to earn a 3-1 victory over Calgary on Tuesday. It was a nice bounce-back performance after he surrendered seven goals on 27 shots to Edmonton on Saturday. The 29-year-old netminder has an 8-1-2 record, 2.46 GAA and .911 save percentage in 11 appearances this season. The Islanders are in a three-way tie for 26th offensively with 2.50 goals per game and are playing without one of their top forwards in Mathew Barzal (upper body).

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Bounces back Tuesday
Lankinen stopped 28 of 29 shots in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Flames.
Lankinen was pulled from his last start, and that appears to have been enough to get him back on track. He's won four of his last five outings, allowing a total of 13 goals in that span, including seven tallies in the one loss. For the season, the Finn is 8-1-2 with a 2.46 GAA and a .911 save percentage through 11 appearances. The Canucks' next game is Thursday versus the Islanders.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Pulled in third period
Lankinen stopped 20 of 27 shots before he was pulled in the third period of Saturday's 7-3 loss to the Oilers.
Lankinen was handed his first regulation loss of the season, and it was ugly. The Oilers scored four times in a span of 4:55 during the third period to chase him from the contest. Lankinen is now 7-1-2 with a 2.61 GAA and a .905 save percentage through 10 start this season, numbers in line with his typical level of performance. He'd been much better than that prior to Saturday, and he could get the chance to bounce back Tuesday against another division rival, the Flames, if he gets the start for that contest.
