Vancouver Canucks goaltender Kevin Lankinen has been doing a good job of holding down the fort since the start of the season with Thatcher Demko sidelined.

A supreme defensive effort got the Canucks' East Coast road trip off to a 2-0-0 start with a shutout in Boston.

Kevin Lankinen has been a revelation for the Vancouver Canucks, delivering game-stealing performances that highlight his importance to the team’s success. His recent 32-save shutout against the Boston Bruins showcased his composure under pressure,

Let us understand this: Troy Gamble very nearly was the man for the Canucks. In 1990-91 he supplanted Kirk McLean as the team’s No. 1 goalie. Then he got concussed. And he never recovered.

Kevin Lankinen recorded a 33-save shutout and made Jake DeBrusk's second-period goal stand up as the Vancouver Canucks edged past the host Boston Bruins 2-0 on Tuesday.

It’s not about how you do it sometimes. The Vancouver Canucks absolutely stole a result from the Boston Bruins last night, managing to get a 2-0 win off the back of an incredible performance by Kevin Lankinen.

Lankinen rebounded in a 4-3 win over Ottawa on Saturday after allowing eight combined goals in back-to-back losses. The Finnish netminder is sporting a 9-3-2 record, .901 save percentage and 2.74 GAA through 14 appearances. The 29-year-old will face a Bruins club that ranks 32nd in the NHL with 2.32 goals per game through 22 contests.

The Vancouver Canucks added another win in the road game column with a 2-0 victory over the Boston Bruins. The Canucks made a solid showing in the defensive end, starting with goaltender Kevin Lankinen,
