The Blackhawks fell to the Minnesota Wild 4-3 in overtime at Xcel Energy Center on Saturday. Here are 10 observations from the loss.
Kevin Lankinen made his first start since Dec. 18 and was lights out. He stopped 40 of 44 shots for a save percentage of .909, and 21 of those shots came from the slot, according to Sportlogiq. He didn't allow a single goal during 5-on-5 play — two of the goals against came on the penalty kill, one came during a 6-on-5 opportunity and the other in 3-on-3 overtime. He deserved better.The Blackhawks survived the second period ... barely. The only reason they did was because of Lankinen.
Minnesota did a phenomenal job at protecting the house in back-to-back contests.The Wild have scored 13 goals with the extra attacker this season. Insane. Dean Evason's aggressive call to pull the goaltender with 3:14 left in the third period paid off.Chicago's penalty kill has been a work in progress for a while now, and it remains that way. The Wild scored two power-play goals and had 18 shot attempts, 11 shots on goal and seven scoring chances on their five opportunities.
