Could earn second start
GSan Jose Sharks  Minors
December 12, 2022
Makiniemi may be in line to start at home against the Coyotes on Tuesday, Corey Masisak of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Makiniemi was stellar in his first NHL start, stopping 23 of 24 shots faced in a victory over the Ducks. If the 23-year-old netminder remains in top form, he could challenge Kaapo Kahkonen for the No. 2 job behind James Reimer. In fact, Reimer's mundane start to the season could open the door for Makiniemi to push for the starting job too.
