Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen Gets Home Start Against Lightning

Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen will protect the home goal against the Tampa Bay Lightning on Wednesday, as reported by Heather Engel of NHL.com. Luukkonen has been alternating starts with Colten Ellis but has allowed just four goals on 55 shots over his last two starts, winning both contests. He will aim to lock down the primary starting role against a dangerous Lightning offense that has scored three or more goals in 11 straight games.
