Somewhere, Kevin Woodley is euphoric because of this post.

Got to feel a twinge of sympathy for Lankinen tonight in Edmonton.....he's being thrown to the wolves just to get the Canucks through another meaningless exhibition game.

I suppose the 'positive' is, he'll stare down a bevy of high-end chances and get in a lot of work.....This should help him in the long run. But listening to the goal horn go off and fans in the stands celebrating, can be grating on any goalie.

He looked technically solid I thought. Especially in the shootout. He followed Mcdavid and stopped him.

Even on the last goal , he almost did the same as he did to Mcdavid.

When Demko comes back , we might have a trade chip in either him or Silovs.

He looks solid and is very cheap. I would be confident in net with him and Silovs as a tandem.
