Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Struggles in Saturday's loss
Lankinen stopped seven of 11 shots in a 5-3 defeat against the Rangers on Saturday. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.
Lankinen allowed three goals on six shots in a disastrous third period. He finished the game with an ugly .636 save percentage. Lankinen has lost five of his last seven outings to drop to 24-14-8 with a 2.59 GAA and a .901 save percentage through 46 appearances this season.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Starting in New York
Lankinen will guard the road net Saturday against the Rangers, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.
Lankinen will make his fourth straight start after going 1-1-1 with an .890 save percentage in his previous three outings. Overall, the 29-year-old netminder is 24-13-8 this season with a .903 save percentage and a 2.56 GAA.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Allows four tallies
Lankinen stopped 25 of 29 shots on net in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Blues.
Lankinen tended a clean first 35 minutes of Thursday's contest before the Blues scored three goals in the remaining two periods, including two in 24 seconds. Overall, the 29-year-old netminder holds a 24-13-8 record with a 2.56 GAA and a .903 save percentage. Since the start of March, Lankinen has been a bit below league average with a 4-4-1 record and an .885 save percentage across nine starts. With Thatcher Demko still sidelined with a lower-body injury, Lankinen's frequent appearances between the pipes for Vancouver have fantasy value amid a tight race for a Western Conference wild-card spot. His next opportunity to defend the crease is Saturday against the Rangers.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Expected to start Thursday
Lankinen is set to start on the road against St. Louis on Thursday.
Lankinen stopped 20 of 22 shots in a 6-2 victory over Winnipeg on Tuesday. He's 24-13-7 with a 2.53 GAA and a .904 save percentage in 44 appearances in 2024-25. The Blues rank 18th in goals per game with 2.93. There will be a little added pressure on Lankinen to perform because Thatcher Demko is set to return from a lower-body injury Thursday. Demko will be the understudy in that tilt, but he might significantly eat into Lankinen's time down the stretch, especially if Lankinen struggles.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Secures win over Jets
Lankinen stopped 19 of 21 shots in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Jets.
The Canucks led 3-1 after one period, and that was enough for Lankinen to get the win. The 29-year-old had lost three of his previous four outings, though he hasn't faced more than 26 shots in his last five games. For the season, the Finnish netminder improved to 24-13-7 with a 2.53 GAA and a .904 save percentage over 44 appearances. The Canucks begin a six-game road trip in St. Louis on Thursday, and with no back-to-backs during their upcoming travels, Lankinen could end up seeing a heavy workload.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: In goal Tuesday
Lankinen will be between the home pipes Tuesday against Winnipeg, per Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650.
Lankinen turned in a serviceable performance in a 3-1 loss to Utah on Sunday but received minimal offensive support. It's been an up-and-down month for the Finnish netminder -- Lankinen is 3-4-0 with an .886 save percentage and a 2.72 GAA over seven outings in March. The Jets have won three consecutive contests and sit third in the NHL with 3.47 goals per game in 2024-25. Lankinen surrendered six goals on 33 shots during his first career appearance against Winnipeg on Jan. 14.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Takes loss against Utah
Lankinen surrendered two goals on 22 shots in Sunday's 3-1 loss to Utah. The third goal was an empty-netter.
The Canucks had an opportunity to get some separation in the race for the second wild-card spot, but instead, they allowed Utah to tighten the pack. Lankinen didn't play poorly, but the scoring support just wasn't there in the second half of a back-to-back. This dropped Lankinen to 4-5-0 over nine games since the 4 Nations Face-Off, and he's now at 23-13-7 with a 2.54 GAA and a .904 save percentage through 43 outings this season. The Canucks' homestand ends with a challenging game Tuesday versus the Jets, which will likely be another turn in the crease for Lankinen.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Slated to start
Lankinen is expected to protect the home net against Utah on Sunday, Jeff Paterson of CanucksArmy.com reports.
Lankinen will get the second half of Vancouver's back-to-back after Arturs Silovs played in Saturday's 6-2 win over Chicago. The 29-year-old Lankinen has a 23-12-7 record with four shutouts, a 2.55 GAA and a .904 save percentage across 42 appearances this campaign. Utah sits 22nd in the league with 2.82 goals per game in 2024-25.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Holds firm to earn shootout win
Lankinen stopped 20 of 23 shots in Wednesday's 4-3 shootout win over the Flames.
Lankinen gave up a pair of goals to Jonathan Huberdeau in the second period, which put the Canucks behind. Elias Pettersson tied the game in the third, and Lankinen held firm, including stopping three of four attempts in the shootout, to secure the win in a game between two teams battling for a playoff spot. The 29-year-old netminder is 3-3-0 after starting six straight games to begin March, and he's allowed three or more goals in four of those contests. For the season, Lankinen sports a 23-12-7 record with a 2.55 GAA and a .904 save percentage through 42 appearances. The Canucks have another back-to-back up next, as they host the Blackhawks on Saturday and Utah on Sunday. It's unclear at this time if Arturs Silovs will be considered to start either of those games.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: In goal again Wednesday
Lankinen will protect the road goal versus the Flames on Wednesday, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.
Lankinen took a second consecutive loss in Tuesday's 4-2 defeat against the Canadiens. However, the Canucks are trying to keep pace in the playoff race, and Lankinen gives them a better chance to win than Arturs Silovs. The 29-year-old Lankinen is 3-4-0 with a 2.59 GAA and a .901 save percentage over his last seven outings, and he has a favorable matchup against the Flames' pedestrian offense.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Second straight defeat
Lankinen stopped 23 of 26 shots in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Canadiens. The fourth goal came on an empty-netter with 17 seconds left in the game.
Lankinen was beaten twice in the first period and once more in the second, and now he's dropped three of his last five starts, posting a 2.85 GAA and an .884 save percentage in that stretch. The Canucks play again Wednesday at Calgary, so Lankinen could get the night off in the second leg of a back-to-back set. If that's the case, then Arturs Silovs would likely defend the Canucks' crease.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Starting first half of back-to-back
Lankinen will tend the home twine Tuesday versus Montreal, according to Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports.
Lankinen will make his fifth straight start as Vancouver is battling for a playoff spot in the Western Conference. The 29-year-old has had mixed results over four outings in March, going 2-2-0 with an .884 save percentage and a 2.79 GAA. The Canadiens have lost back-to-back games and were shutout 1-0 in Calgary on Saturday.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Facing Dallas
Lankinen will defend the home crease against the Stars on Sunday, according to Jeff Paterson of CanucksArmy.com.
Lankinen has won back-to-back games and three of his last four while conceding two goals or fewer in each victory. The Finnish goaltender owns a 22-10-7 record, .906 save percentage and 2.52 GAA through 39 appearances this season. Dallas is on the second half of a back-to-back after losing 5-4 in Edmonton on Saturday and will be without Roope Hintz (face), who was injured in that game.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Falters in Sunday's loss
Lankinen stopped 15 of 18 shots in Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Stars. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.
Lankinen had won three of his last four outings, but he didn't put in a great performance against a tough opponent. The Stars scored twice in the second period, and Jason Robertson added the third goal on Lankinen's line midway through the third to squash any hope of a Vancouver comeback. For the season, Lankinen slipped to 22-11-7 with a 2.53 GAA and a .905 save percentage across 40 games. The Canucks have a back-to-back up next with a home game Tuesday versus the Canadiens followed by a trip to Calgary on Wednesday. It's one of two back-to-back sets over the next week, so Lankinen and Arturs Silovs appear poised to split the workload in that span, as it's unlikely Thatcher Demko (lower body) will be cleared to play during that stretch.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Between pipes Friday
Lankinen will guard the home net versus Minnesota on Friday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
Lankinen is having a career year with the Canucks this season. He is 21-10-7 with four shutouts, a 2.56 GAA and a .904 save percentage. The Wild have had trouble finding the back of the net in 2024-25, generating 2.82 goals per game, tied for 22nd in the NHL.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Stands tall in win
Lankinen stopped 37 of 38 shots in Friday's 3-1 win over the Wild.
Lankinen has won four of his last six outings, and this is the fifth time in that span he's allowed two or fewer goals. His shutout bid was spoiled by Brock Faber's power-play tally, but Lankinen held off the Wild's relentless attack and got just enough goal support late in the third period to claim the win. He's now 22-10-7 with a 2.52 GAA and a .906 save percentage over 39 outings this season. The 29-year-old netminder seems likely to get the nod for a challenging matchup versus the Stars on Sunday.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Lightly tested in win
Lankinen stopped 14 of 16 shots in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Ducks.
The Ducks didn't have much going in the second half of their back-to-back, leaving Lankinen with little to do. In that regard, it wasn't a particularly inspiring performance from the 29-year-old netminder, but it was enough for his third win in five starts. He's now at a 21-10-7 record through a career-high 38 games, and he's added a 2.56 GAA and a .904 save percentage. The Canucks' homestand continues with a tougher matchup Friday versus the Wild.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Set to face Anaheim
Lankinen is expected to start at home against Anaheim on Wednesday, per Ben Kuzma of Postmedia.
Lankinen is coming off a disappointing 6-3 loss to Seattle on Saturday in which he surrendered five goals on 23 shots. He had a good stretch before that, though, stopping 77 of 82 shots (.939 save percentage) over three outings from Feb. 6 to Feb. 26. This will be his second start of the campaign against the Ducks after he saved 21 of 22 shots en route to a 5-1 victory over them Nov. 5.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Unlucky in loss
Lankinen stopped 18 of 23 shots in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Kraken. The sixth goal was an empty-netter.
Lankinen didn't have much fortune Saturday. The Kraken tipped in three of the five goals against him, while the Canucks' skaters frequently hit the post. It's still Lankinen's worst performance since he surrendered six goals in a loss to the Jets on Jan. 14. The 29-year-old had given up just 11 goals over six outings since that game, so it's possible he was due for a stinker. He's at 20-10-7 with a 2.57 GAA and a .904 save percentage across 37 appearances this season. He'll have some extra time to regroup after the loss -- the Canucks' next game is Wednesday at home versus the Ducks.

Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Set to face Seattle
Lankinen is expected to start on the road against Seattle on Saturday, per Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650.
Lankinen has a 20-9-7 record, 2.50 GAA and .907 save percentage in 36 appearances in 2024-25. He stopped 24 of 26 shots en route to a 3-2 overtime victory over the Kings in his last start Wednesday. Seattle is in a three-way tie for 17th in goals per game with 2.88.
