It’s Lankinen, it’s Levi, it’s a shockingly shallow Oilers lineup, and it’s opening night for the #Canucks and the club’s instant cult hero Paul Cotter. There may be pain this season, but as we learned on Tuesday, there will also be some fun. Enjoy the journey, Vancouver. https://t.co/EiXJyiIsmp

Canucks claim goalie Leevi Merilainen off waivers. VAN has been tracking him since the summer. This move tells me you will see a Lankinen - Merilainen duo to start regular season. It is pronounced Leh-vee.
