Antti Raanta Heads Out For His Eighth Start
3 years agoCarolina Hurricanes goaltender Antti Raanta will record his eighth start of the season in Thursday's very favorable matchup against the struggling Canadiens, looking to improve a 4-2-1 record. Raanta has flipped between wins and losses all season and he was defeated by the Canucks in his last start, so history is pointing towards a victory here. The Finnish netminder has actually played well all year, as he boasts a 2.37 goals-against average with a .907 save percentage. The Hurricanes also have Frederik Andersen (COVID-19 protocols) available again and he'll serve as the backup. We should see him on Saturday against Columbus.
