Finland is making a change in net for its second game of the 4 Nations Face-Off. Coach Antti Pennanen said Kevin Lankinen will start against Sweden on Saturday after Juuse Saros allowed six goals on 32 shots in Finland's 6-1 loss to the United States in each team's first game of the tournament.
Finland mulls changes after ‘tough day’ for Saros in opening 4 Nations loss
MONTREAL -- Juuse Saros had a tough initial outing at the 4 Nations Face-Off, and Finland may be re-evaluating its goaltending situation before it plays again this weekend. Saros allowed six goals on 32 shots in Finland’s 6-1 loss to the United States at Bell Centre on Thursday.
He may well find himself on the bench Saturday when Finland returns to action against arch-rival Sweden in a must-win game.
