San Jose Sharks goaltender Kaapo Kahkonen (upper body) missed Friday's practice and is questionable for Saturday's meeting with Pittsburgh. The Finnish netminder was involved in a collision with Vancouver Canucks forward Andrei Kuzmenko Thursday night. Kahkonen was pulled from the contest in the middle of the second frame after he had allowed six goals on 19 shots. He was seen on the Sharks bench but might now be unavailable for the next game. San Jose is off to a horrible start, and Kahkonen has taken a few beatings as well, going 0-4-0 with a 4.30 goals-against average and a .876 save percentage. Mackenzie Blackwood should start Saturday as the Sharks continue to search for their first victory.

It was his second win of the preseason while he lowered his numbers to a 1.00 goals-against average and .962 save percentage in exhibition play. The 27-year-old worked to a rough 3.85 GAA and .883 Sv% across 37 outings last season, his first full season in San Jose. For his career, Kahkonen owns a 3.23 GAA and .899 Sv% in 102 appearances between the Sharks and Minnesota Wild and should be left alone in fantasy drafts this fall.
