I wrote an article on Artturi Lehkonen’s offence a few days ago and. Since then, the winger has offered a perfect occasion for a follow-up. Why? Because he has started finding the back of the net again in effective fashion.
The previous piece touched on a few elements that Lehkonen had to improve in order to get better scoring chances: his sense of timing, his ability to create space for himself, moving away from coverage (not into it), and being more often in a shot-ready position. Those are all aspects he showcased to different degrees on his goal against Buffalo and last night against Florida.
