Vancouver Canucks fans in Canada might feel conflicted on Monday as they watch goaltender Kevin Lankinen take on Team Canada in the 4 Nations Faceoff.
Canucks goaltender Kevin Lankinen has been a pleasant surprise for the team all season, and he was given the crease for Team Finland and managed to help lead them to a victory over their rivals Sweden.
Lankinen rewarded with the net in do or die game
On Monday at 10 AM PST, Team Canada and Team Finland will face off for their third, and for at least one of the teams, final game of the 4 Nations Faceoff.
After stopping 21 of 24 shots in an OT victory over Sweden, Finland is once again putting their faith in Kevin Lankinen after a shaky start for Juuse Saros in game one against USA.

Finland's head coach Antti Pennanen confirmed that the 29 year old would be getting the start.
With each of Sweden, Finland and Canada having 2 points going into Monday's final contests before the Thursday final, it's a must win scenario for both Team Canada and Team Finland.
Canucks fans in Canada will find themselves in unfamiliar territory, cheering against the goaltender who has helped them stay competitive in the playoff race this season.
