Goalie Start
Lankinen will start Wednesday in Anahem.
Lankinen has not played since January 22nd due to a hand injury but will be available for one of the Blackhawks' games this weekend. Originally, the Blackhawks said that he would start Sunday but have back-tracked and haven't decided who will start Friday and who will start Sunday.
Lankinen will be out until after the All-Star break, so Arvid Soderblom will serve as the No.2 goalie behind Marc-Andre Fleury.
With Marc-Andre Fleury already on the COVID-19 protocol list, Lankinen was scheduled to start Saturday but that likely won't happen now. Collin Delia figures to get the nod if both Fleury and Lankinen remain in protocol.
