The Finnish goalie didn't take Saturday's loss well.
The 2014-15 season has been a tough one for Kari Lehtonen. Once a top prospect in Atlanta, the oft-criticized goalie has been decidedly mediocre of late, and with a save percentage below .910, is at risk of losing his job to newly acquired Jhonas Enroth.
Saturday's matchup against the Red Wings was particularly tough for Lehtonen, who allowed seven goals -- including the game-winner in overtime. Niklas Kronwall beat the veteran Finn 36 seconds into the extra frame to give Detroit a 7-6 victory.
Lehtnonen, who lets his emotions get the best of him from time to time, didn't take the loss particularly well.

It'll be interesting to see how the Stars manage their goalies moving forward. Enroth fared well in Buffalo -- all things considered -- and may be the team's best option in net. Lehtonen certainly do himself any favors tonight.
