Antti Raanta Stands Tall in Tough Test
6 years agoArizona Coyotes goaltender Antti Raanta held up against a torrent of shots from Carolina as he led the Coyotes to an overtime win on Friday. Allowing only three goals on 51 shots, including nine power-play shots, Raanta faced his heaviest workload of the season and was more than up to the task. Raanta has been stellar as of late, winning each of his last three starts with a .954 save percentage in those games. He now has a .929 save percentage this season, which almost exactly mirrors his .930 mark from last season. If the Coyotes offense can improve on their paltry 2.83 goals per game rate, then Raanta could make the leap into top-end fantasy goalie territory.
