3 years agoMinnesota Wild goaltender Kaapo Kahkonen earns another start on Thursday night against the New Jersey Devils. The goalie stopped 29 of 31 shots in a win over the Arizona Coyotes on Tuesday night. Most were likely expecting Cam Talbot in net but he had seen 103 shots in three starts so Dean Evason wanted to give him a little more rest. The bigger question is how Kahkonen responds given the opportunity. He should be motivated as the Finnish goalie goes for win number four on the season Thursday night. --Chris Wassel - RotoBaller
