Jess Posted September 21 Author Share Posted September 21 Seems like a very capable backup. Struggled as a sophomore in Chicago, but has since been quite good in the two years since in Nashville. Turns 30 at the end of the 2024-25 season. Probably better than Silovs unless Silovs has improved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So does their city, of course. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won the Calder while being injured half of the season. He still led in points lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanucksJay Posted September 23 Share Posted September 23 https://canucksarmy.com/news/vancouver-canucks-sail-salary-cap-signing-kevin-lankinen Update on the salary cap situation To be honest, at this point, I think it would be smartest to move Poolman and get him off our books even if it costs us a 2nd round pick. With DJ and Demko out, even though we can fit it all under the cap, the accrual would only amount to less than 1m by TDL. My guess is that PA will take a look at the team and see where we are at injury wise heading into opening day. If Demko and DJ are the only ones injured, he wont have to dip into LTIR and I can see him moving Poolman. However, if we suffer another injury that's gonna require LTIR to bring players in / call up, there's no point in trading Poolman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bretzky Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 Does he have a new mask yet?! I hope so! Silovs is destined for Abby, at least he looks as good as Skinner the Coiler….but what ever, we need a solid till Demko is back. So I’m guessing it’s Lankinen in net to start next game against Philly. But he has to have an updated mask by now I hope….anybody know?

Baratheon Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 My understanding was that the original plan was to play Lanky next game. I assume that last night wouldn’t change that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanky might be better than Silovs. Silovs has had only 20 games in NHL, albeit he was fine in playoffs but we dont know how he will do in regular season. Lanky has 100+ NHL game experience so I think he is more ready for regular season. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 So will the team split Goaltender duties, or lean more on Lank? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well hopefully he plays really well, ‘cause we need a solid starter. I guess we’ll see soon! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nergish Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 I wouldn't hitch my wagon on Lankinen quite yet. I watched him like a hawk since he signed, and I'm not sold. Arty is a very good goaltending prospect, but he's very raw. Those long shot goals are definitely concerning. He needs to work on fighting through a crowd and staying big up top when dropping into butterfly. We don't have capital G great goaltending right now without Demko. That was never meant to be a big shocker, we're just trying to make due. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Brodka Jr Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 Silovs can't stop shots from far out. Teams have already figured this out. This team needs RELIABLE goaltending! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
