Can Kaapo Kahkonen Turn It Around?



Kaapo Kahkonen is coming off an abismol season for the San Jose Sharks. He posted a career-worst save percentage and was one of the worst goalies in the NHL when it came to goals saved above expected. Can Kahkonen still be the goalie of the future for the Sharks? Start by analyzing Kahkonen’s season numbers and how his high-danger and in particular his medium-danger save percentages were what caused the issues. Then look at how the Sharks compared to the rest of the league in giving up high-danger opportunities. Finally, what does Kahkonen need to do going forward, and if the Sharks need an overhaul in how they evaluate goalies?

  1. No. He's absolutely brutal. Worst positioning I've ever seen. Should honestly be bought out if we cant sucker some fool into giving us some cracker jacks for him

  2. No. He is who he is by now. Serviceable backup. He has the same problem Martin Jones had: he doesn’t steal goals from the other team. Even Reimer does that from time to time as a veteran. Kahkonen has never really shown that in his 1.5 seasons with the Sharks.
