Yes, the Chicago Blackhawks lost to the Florida Panthers in a 5-4 OT loss, but there is a LOT to like about this game. Even though it was one point, there is a lot to like about this game, starting with the fact Kevin Lankinen was solid in his first start. He made key saves to keep them in the game and did all he could in the net.
Three of the Panthers’ five goals were not on him, but on defensive coverage. Ian Mitchell missed Carter Verhaeghe on his breakaway goal, but he is a young defenseman who has done a lot of good things in the last three games.
