Lankinen made 16 saves on 17 shots in relief in a 5-1 loss to the Wild on Friday.
Lankinen relieved Macr-Andre Fleury in this one, settling things down for Chicago in a classic case of too little, too late. The 26-year-old netminder had not seen game action since Dec. 18 against Dallas and does not seem likely to threaten to take any of Fleury's playing time in the Windy City.
