Canucks' Kevin Lankinen: Starting sixth straight

Lankinen will get the start Sunday against the Lightning, Dan Murphy of Sportsnet reports.

Since the injury to Thatcher Demko (lower body), Lankinen has been heavily leaned on by the Canucks. The 30-year-old Lankinen will play in his sixth straight contest despite coming out on the winning end just once in the previous five appearances. He carries a 3-5-2 record, 3.58 GAA and .886 save percentage into the contest against the Lightning, who have scored at least three goals in four consecutive games.
