Antti Raanta Makes 20 Saves In Victory
1 year agoCarolina Hurricanes goaltender Antti Raanta stopped 20-of-22 shots on goal in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime victory against the Sabres. The 34-year-old was solid throughout the contest as he picked up his fourth win of the season to go along with a 2.83 goals against average and .877 save percentage through six appearances. Raanta is worth rostering across standard fantasy formats as the veteran netminder is expected to step up and serve as the number one option in the crease in the absence of starting goaltender Frederik Andersen, who is out indefinitely with a blood clotting issue. Raanta's next start is projected to take place on one half of the back-to-back over the weekend, where the Hurricanes will take on the Panthers and Lightning on the road.
