  • At T-Mobile Arena, Luukkonen made 27 saves to record his first shutout of the season as Buffalo beat Vegas 2-0 on Tuesday night.

  • Showing his size and timing, Luukkonen stopped multiple high-danger chances, including a glove save on Brayden McNabb and a rob on Jack Eichel with his 6-foot-5 frame.
  • The victory moved Buffalo into a tie for the Eastern Conference lead with 90 points and extended their road record to 18-2-1, with 10 wins in 11 since the Olympic break.
