Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen News: Starting once again

Luukkonen will get the start for Sunday's game against the Hurricanes, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.

Luukkonen is getting back-to-back starts for the first time this season and will make only his sixth start overall. The 26-year-old has a 2-2-1 record, 3.01 GAA and .881 save percentage in his five appearances. The Hurricanes have scored at least three goals in five straight games and boast the second-best offense in the NHL at 3.62 goals per game, so Luukkonen will have his work cut out for him Sunday.
