Pekka Rinne Extends Win Streak To Nine With Victory On Tuesday
7 years agoNashville Predators goaltender Pekka Rinne stifled opposing shooters once again in a win against the Jets on Tuesday. After seeing little action in the first period as his team took a 3-0 lead, Rinne was excellent in the final two periods, finishing the night with 32 saves on 33 shots. The Finnish goaltender's current streak is gaining him some serious Vezina recognition as the league's top goalie. Rinne will enter Thursday's game in Arizona with 38 wins (second in NHL among starters), a 2.25 goals-against average (third), a .929 save percentage (third) and seven shutouts (first). Playing for the NHL's top team, Rinne is an obvious must-start in all fantasy leagues.
