Luukkonen Slated for Wednesday Start After Back-to-Back Wins

Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen is slated to start Wednesday in Pittsburgh, per Paul Hamilton. The Sabres goaltender has won back-to-back games for the first time this season, stopping 49 of 53 shots (.925 SV%) in recent victories. After starting the year on injured reserve due to a lower-body injury, Luukkonen holds a 3-2-1 record with a 2.67 GAA and .897 SV% across six appearances, solidifying his position as the team's potential No. 1 option.
