Raanta was promoted from AHL Chicago on Tuesday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports. - The Hurricanes already have three goalies on the roster, so Raanta's chances of playing in the postseason are incredibly low.

He has a 12-7-2 record, 2.99 GAA and .872 save percentage in 24 contests this season.

Raanta (lower body) was removed from injured reserve Wednesday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports. - Raanta's activation indicates he's ready to return to the goaltending mix for the Hurricanes. The 34-year-old will likely slot in as the No. 2 goalie behind Pyotr Kochetkov for now, however, Frederik Andersen (illness) appears poised to return to action soon, and he could take over as the Hurricanes' No. 1 option in net down the stretch. |

The Hurricanes were forced to go back to Kochetkov after Raanta was injured late in the middle frame, though he was able to finish the period, stopping all nine shots he faced. If Raanta misses time beyond Thursday, Kochetkov and Spencer Martin will be the Hurricanes' goaltending duo. |

Raanta will protect the home goal versus the Coyotes on Saturday. - While Pyotr Kochetkov (concussion) came off injured reserve Friday, he won't displace Raanta from the starting spot just yet.

The Coyotes are 2-3-1 over their last six games, scoring just 15 goals over that span. |

None |
Jan. 25, 2024 |
Raanta is expected to be between the home pipes Thursday versus New Jersey. - Spencer Martin picked up the start Wednesday, so it only makes sense that Raanta will get the call against the Devils. It has been a tough season for Raanta, as he was waived earlier in the season and spent a couple of games with AHL Chicago. Raanta is 10-7-2 with a 3.20 GAA and a poor .866 save percentage. He will take on the Devils, who have scored 156 goals in 45 games, 10th in the NHL. |
None |

Raanta turned aside 14 of 17 shots in Sunday's 5-2 loss to Minnesota. - The Wild's final two goals were scored into an empty net. The Hurricanes out-shot the opposition 42-17 in total, but Raanta had little chance on the first two pucks that beat him, one coming on a tip-in and the other through a screen. Since taking over as Carolina's No. 1 netminder in early January, the 34-year-old has gone 3-2-1 with a 2.28 GAA but an .898 save percentage, as he's faced more than 24 shots only once in six appearances. |

Jan. 21, 2024 |
Raanta will guard the home net Sunday against Minnesota, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports. - It'll be the fourth consecutive start for Raanta with Pyotr Kochetkov (concussion) on injured reserve. The 34-year-old Raanta is 10-6-2 with an unsightly .868 save percentage and 3.21 GAA.

Jan. 12, 2024 |
Raanta was credited with the win after replacing Pyotr Kochetkov (upper body) midway through the second period of Thursday's 6-3 victory over the Ducks, stopping all three shots he faced. - It might have been the easiest win of Raanta's career given how few shots were sent his way, as Carolina responded with fury after Kochetkov took a hit to the head on a rush by Isac Lundestrom -- Stefan Noesen scored the game-winner less than a minute after Kochetkov left the game. Raanta could be thrust into the starting role for Carolina if Kochetkov's injury proves to be serious, but he has looked better since being recalled from AHL Chicago in late December, going 2-0-1 in three appearances while stopping 42 of 46 shots (.913 save percentage). |

Raanta turned aside 24 shots in Friday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Predators. - The veteran netminder didn't seem comfortable all night, starting in the first period when a weak backhand by Juuso Parssinen trickled through Raanta's five-hole and just across the goal line. He's hasn't won a game since Nov. 22, going 0-3-1 across his last five appearances with a 4.75 GAA and horrific .805 save percentage, and Raanta has fallen firmly behind Pyotr Kochetkov on the depth chart for Carolina. |
None |

Raanta will get the starting nod at home against the Predators. - Raanta has been stuck in a rut lately, going 0-3-0 with a brutal .807 save percentage over his last four appearances.

He's 0-2-0 over his last three outings while stopping just 51 of 64 shots (.797 save percentage). Vancouver will be a difficult team for Raanta to rebound against -- the Canucks rank third offensively this year with 3.81 goals per game. |

Dec. 6, 2023 |
Raanta stopped 25 of 28 shots in relief of Pyotr Kochetkov in Wednesday's 6-1 loss to the Oilers. - Raanta played 54:14 in the game, and the Oilers hardly let up after chasing Kochetkov early in the first period. With 13 goals allowed over his last three appearances, Raanta is far from a reliable option for fantasy managers. He's at a 6-4-0 record with a 3.33 GAA and an .863 save percentage over 12 contests. Given his heavy workload Wednesday, it's unclear if Raanta will play Thursday versus the Flames or if head coach Rod Brind'Amour will give Kochetkov a chance at redemption. |

None |
Nov. 25, 2023 |
Raanta allowed eight goals on just 14 shots in Friday's 8-2 home loss against the Lightning. - Raanta's stat line looks awful, but to be fair, a lot of the goals weren't entirely his fault. The Lightning took advantage of three penalties to the Hurricanes in the second period, scoring three power-play goals with a 4-minute and 20-second stretch. In the third period, Tampa Bay blitzed Raanta for five goals, and overall he allowed four goals on the man advantage, as the penalty kill was mostly non-existent for the Canes. |

Nov. 11, 2023 |
Raanta turned aside 30 of 34 shots in Friday's 5-2 loss to Florida. - The Panthers' final goal was scored into an empty net. The 'Canes grabbed an early 1-0 lead but it quickly melted away as Florida came at Carolina in waves, and Raanta had little chance to stop any of the pucks that beat him. It's the veteran netminder's first loss since Oct. 15, leaving him with a solid 4-2-0 record through seven appearances, but on the season Raanta has a less appealing 3.02 GAA and .877 save percentage. |
None |
Nov. 10, 2023 |
Raanta will get the starting nod in Florida on Friday, Doug Plagens of the Panthers Radio Network reports. - Raanta will make his third straight start as he continues shouldering the load in Frederick Andersen's (illness) absence. Raanta has earned three straight wins, including his 20-save shutout Oct. 27 against the Sharks. During that stretch, he's posted a .924 save percentage. However, his season mark still sits at .877 through six appearances. |

Nov. 8, 2023 |
Raanta stopped 20 shots in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Sabres. - While he didn't see a lot of volume, Raanta had to make some very tough saves just to get Carolina to OT and set the stage for another Martin Necas game-winner. Raanta has won four straight starts, allowing a total of seven goals on 81 shots during those outings, and the fact that the Hurricanes brought in Jaroslav Halak on a free-agent tryout earlier this week is a strong sign Frederik Andersen (illness) won't be back on the ice any time soon. As long as Raanta can stay healthy himself, the 34-year-old appears set for a fairly hefty workload, with youngster Pyotr Kochetkov -- just called back up from AHL Syracuse on Monday -- backing him up for now. |

Raanta will guard the home goal against Buffalo on Tuesday, per Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site. - Raanta made 22 saves in a 4-3 overtime win over the Islanders on Saturday. In five contests this campaign, he has a 3-1-0 record with a 3.03 GAA and an .870 save percentage.

Nov. 4, 2023 |
Raanta will protect the road goal versus the Islanders on Saturday, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports. - Raanta posted a 20-save shutout against the Sharks in his previous outing, but Frederik Andersen has started the last two games. With an .867 save percentage over four games, Raanta hasn't played all that well early in 2023-24. The Islanders have scored just 16 goals over their last six games, making this a favorable spot for Raanta to try to build on his last start. |
None |

While it wasn't a particularly sharp outing, Raanta ended up with his first win in his second appearance this season.

Oct. 15, 2023 |
Raanta will guard the road goal in Sunday's game versus the Ducks, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports. - Raanta will start the second half of a back-to-back after Frederik Andersen yielded five goals in a shootout win over the Kings on Saturday. The expectation is that the Hurricanes will rotate goalies regularly this year rather than riding one starter, but Raanta will likely handle a slightly smaller share of the workload. The 34-year-old impressed in 27 games last season with a 19-3-3 record, a 2.23 GAA and a .910 save percentage. |

Raanta will guard the home goal versus the Panthers on Saturday in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals, Mark Lazerus of The Athletic reports. - Raanta hasn't played since Game 5 of the first round after battling an illness. In that time, Frederik Andersen took over the starting role. It's possible that head coach Rod Brind'Amour is choosing to rest Andersen after he played all of Thursday's quadruple-overtime loss in Game 1. Raanta has gone 3-2 with a 2.59 GAA and a .906 save percentage in five playoff appearances. |

Even with the return of Frederik Andersen, the 33-year-old Raanta has seemingly cemented himself as the playoff starter. Still, if the Finn stumbles in a few games, he could see himself replaced by the veteran Andersen. |

Raanta stopped 32 of 36 shots Friday in a 5-1 loss to the Islanders in Game 3 of the Hurricanes' first-round series. - The two teams were tied 1-1 heading into the third period, but Raanta wound up on the wrong end of history when the Isles set a playoff record by scoring four times in only 2:18, although the netminder was on the bench for the last one. The stumble might open the door for Frederik Andersen to take the crease for Game 4 on Sunday, but Raanta's 2.60 GAA and .909 save percentage through the first three games of the series have helped Carolina to a 2-1 lead. |

Raanta will get the starting nod at home versus the Islanders in Game 2 on Wednesday, Kevin Kurz of The Athletic reports. - Raanta will appear in back-to-back games for the first time since late January after putting together a 25-save winning effort over New York in Game 1. Despite the 33-year-old Finn starting Wednesday, he figures to remain on a relatively short leash with Frederik Andersen waiting for an opportunity to start as well. At this point, it seems likely that coach Rod Brind'Amour will continue to ride the hot hand as long as the Canes are in the playoffs. |

April 17, 2023 |
Raanta will get the starting nod in Monday's Game 1 home clash with the Islanders, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports. - Raanta came up just one victory shy of a 20-win season, which would have been his first time reaching that threshold since 2017-18 when he was with the Coyotes. The Hurricanes have been rotating starts between Raanta and Frederik Andersen and it appears that trend will continue into the postseason. In his last four appearances, Raanta posted a 3-1-0 record, 1.74 GAA and one shutout. If head coach Rod Brind'Amour continues the flip between backstops, look for Andersen to be between the pipes for Game 2 on Wednesday. |

Raanta turned aside 26 of 29 shots in Friday's 5-4 overtime win over the Sharks. - It's not often you see the winning netminder allow an empty-net goal, but that's exactly what happened in this one. The Hurricanes pulled Raanta late in the third period down 3-2 then gave up one more tally with just under two minutes left, but they managed to score twice before the final horn to force OT, where Martin Necas ended things. Raanta hasn't lost in regulation since mid-November, amassing a 12-2-3 record on the season with a 2.55 GAA despite a shaky .897 save percentage, but assuming Frederik Andersen (upper body) can use the All-Star break to get healthy again, the pecking order in net for Carolina isn't likely to change. |

Raanta stopped the 15 shots he faced in relief during Carolina's 3-2 overtime win against Dallas on Wednesday. - Frederik Andersen got the start, but he stopped just four of six shots in the first period and didn't come out for the second because of an upper-body injury. Raanta was in net to start the second frame, and because Dallas was ahead 2-1 at the time, Raanta was credited with the win. He's 11-2-3 with a 2.52 GAA and an .898 save percentage in 17 contests in 2022-23. The 33-year-old didn't play in Carolina's previous six games, but if Andersen's unavailable for any significant period of time, then Raanta is likely to receive a meaningfully increased workload. |

Raanta was pulled after two periods in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Blues. He allowed three goals on 15 shots. - Two were on the power play, but even then, Raanta looked leaky when he was in the blue paint -- a couple of those goals were questionable at best. Still Rod Brind'Amour is known to ride his goalies, so there's always a risk Raanta could be nicked up. He did appear to be slow to get up on a couple plays in the second period, so we'll watch this carefully. Frederick Andersen is already out with a lower-body injury and while he's been great so far, Pyotr Kochetkov has just nine career NHL starts. Kocketkov stopped 10-of-11 shots in relief and got the win. |

The 33-year-old once again enters the season as the projected backup to Frederik Andersen, though both of the Hurricanes' top netminders have lengthy injury histories. Raanta will have some value in standard fantasy formats given the strength of the Hurricanes' team, but he shouldn't be drafted as more than a No. 3 goalie. |

His .912 save percentage and 2.46 GAA across 25 games this season have quietly provided solid fantasy results behind an above-average Carolina offense. As such, the 32-year-old should make for a great play against a Jets team that's dropped three games in a row by a combined score of 16-5. |
None |
April 19, 2022 |
Raanta stopped 23 of 26 shots in Monday's 5-3 win over Arizona. - It was the third consecutive start for Raanta, with Frederik Andersen (undisclosed) still sidelined.

Raanta is still enjoying a strong March, going 3-1-2 in six starts with a 2.10 GAA and .932 save percentage. |

Raanta will start Sunday's game in Pittsburgh, Josh Getzoff of PensTV reports. - Raanta has a three-game winning streak on the go and is coming off a 36-save shutout of the high-flying Avalanche on Thursday.

Colorado also holds the second-best road power-play percentage with 26. |

As visitors, the Kraken have posted a 7-18-2 record alongside bottom-five averages of 2.41 goals for and 27.8 shots on goal. Seattle also holds the seventh-worst road power-play percentage at 15.5. |

March 5, 2022 |
Raanta made 22 saves in Friday's 3-2 overtime win over the Penguins. - It looked like Raanta might be in for a long night after Pittsburgh grabbed a 2-0 lead in the first period, but the veteran netminder steadied the ship and gave his offense a chance to mount a comeback. He's no threat to Frederik Andersen in the top spot on the Hurricanes' depth chart, but Raanta has been solid since returning to action in late January from an upper-body injury, going 3-1-1 in his last five starts with a 2.76 GAA and .910 save percentage. |

Raanta will defend the blue paint Friday against visiting Pittsburgh, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports. - Raanta has gone 7-3-2 with a 2.55 GAA and .908 save percentage over 14 games this season. The 32-year-old stopped 31 of 34 shots en route to a 4-3 victory over Pittsburgh on Feb. 20. As visitors, the Penguins have gone 19-6-3 while posting top-10 averages of 3.32 goals for and 33.9 shots on goal. Pittsburgh also holds a weak road power-play percentage of 17.1, ranking 21st. |

March 1, 2022 |
Raanta allowed four goals on 41 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Red Wings. - This one turned from a goalie duel through two periods into a score-fest down the stretch, as both offenses struck twice in the third before Lucas Raymond scored the overtime winner on a Detroit power play with eight seconds left in overtime. Raanta's record dropped to 7-3-2, and while his 11 goals allowed in the past three starts are a tad concerning, the Hurricanes' backup goalie is still a strong fantasy option whenever he gets the nod for one of the league's top teams. |
None |
Feb. 20, 2022 |
Raanta stopped 31 shots in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Penguins. - The veteran netminder got handed a 2-0 lead early in the second period that he coughed up before the frame was over, but the Hurricanes scored twice more in the third and the Pens ran out of time before they could tie it up again. Raanta remains firmly behind Frederik Andersen on the depth chart, but his 2.44 GAA and .909 save percentage are solid numbers for a No. 2 goalie. |
None |
Feb. 8, 2022 |
Raanta will start between the pipes in Tuesday's road game versus Ottawa. - Raanta has gone 6-2-1 with a 2.21 GAA and a .914 save percentage over 11 appearances in 2021-22. In the 32-year-old's last meeting with Ottawa on Dec. 2, he stopped 17 of 20 shots on goal en route to a 3-2 loss. The Senators have averaged 32.6 shots on goal and 2.75 goals for alongside an 8-11-1 record at home this season. |
None |
Jan. 30, 2022 |
Raanta made 24 saves on 25 shots in a 2-1 win over the Devils on Saturday. - Talk about a soft landing for a returning goalie, but credit should certainly go to Raanta as well. The 32-year-old netminder missed nine games (upper body) before making the start in this one. The veteran has some tough potential matchups on the docket though, so keep an eye on how he fares in the coming weeks. |
None |
Jan. 29, 2022 |
Raanta will guard the home goal versus the Devils on Saturday. - Raanta will make his first appearance since Jan. 1, when he allowed three goals on nine shots. He'll get a favorable matchup in which to shake off the rust. The 32-year-old is 5-2-1 with a 2.35 GAA and a .908 save percentage in 10 appearances this season. |
None |
Jan. 17, 2022 |
Raanta (upper body) returned to practice Monday, Sara Civian of The Athletic reports. - Raanta has posted a 5-2-1 record with a 2.35 GAA and a .908 save percentage over 10 appearances this season. It wouldn't be surprising to see the 32-year-old take the start in one of the upcoming back-to-back contests beginning Friday, likely the second of the two on Saturday against New Jersey on the road. Jack LaFontaine is likely to be reassigned upon Raanta's return. |
None |
Jan. 10, 2022 |
Raanta (upper body) will not travel for Tuesday's contest with the Flyers, per Cory Lavalette of the North State Journal. - Raanta is still recovering from an upper-body injury he suffered prior to the contest against the Panthers on Jan. 8. The 32-year-old has posted a 5-2-1 record with a 2.13 GAA and .917 save percentage as a starter this season. His next chance to play will be Thursday against Columbus at home. |
None |
Jan. 8, 2022 |
Raanta (upper body) won't play Saturday versus the Panthers. - It's unclear when Raanta was injured or how severe the ailment is, but it's enough to keep him off the ice Saturday. Alex Lyon will start and Frederik Andersen will serve as the backup against the Panthers. Raanta's next chance to play is Tuesday versus the Flyers. |
None |
Jan. 1, 2022 |
Raanta will patrol the crease during Saturday's road matchup with the Blue Jackets, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports. - Raanta was pretty sharp in his last start Dec. 12 versus Vancouver, stopping 24 of 26 shots, but he ultimately suffered his third loss of the season due to insufficient goal support from his teammates. The 32-year-old backstop will try to bounce back with a win in a tough road matchup with a Columbus club that's 10-3-1 at home this year. |
None |
Dec. 30, 2021 |
Raanta will get the starting nod for Thursday's home tilt with Montreal, Walt Ruff of the Canes' official site reports. - Raanta will make his first appearance since Dec. 12 where he allowed two goals on 26 shots in a loss to Vancouver. The veteran netminder is 4-2-1 with a 2.37 GAA and a .907 save percentage this season. He won his last home outing on Dec. 4 against Buffalo. |
None |
Dec. 12, 2021 |
Raanta allowed two goals on 26 shots in Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Canucks. - Raanta had a solid outing, but the Hurricanes' offense was jumbled up with Sebastian Aho (illness) unavailable. The 32-year-old Raanta dropped to 4-2-1 with a 2.37 GAA and a .907 save percentage in eight contests. The Finn will likely continue to see most of his starts in the second halves of back-to-back sets or against lower-scoring opponents, as Frederik Andersen has been steady in a starter's workload this year. |
None |
Dec. 11, 2021 |
Raanta will start Sunday's game against the Canucks, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports. - With workhorse netminder Frederik Andersen between the pipes Saturday in Edmonton, it'll be Raanta who takes the reins on the latter half of the back-to-back set. Despite a 4-1-1 record in limited backup duty this season, Raanta's .904 save percentage leaves something to be desired. |
None |
Dec. 4, 2021 |
Raanta will protect the home goal Saturday versus the Sabres, Sara Civian of The Athletic reports. - Raanta took the loss Thursday, allowing three goals on 20 shots versus the Senators, so it seems odd for him to get another start so soon. He'll face a Sabres team that has scored four times in each of its last two games, but they lost both contests. |
None |
Dec. 3, 2021 |
Raanta gave up three goals on 20 shots in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Senators. - Raanta was outplayed by Senators counterpart Anton Forsberg, as Ottawa won despite Carolina's 49-20 edge in shots. Carolina scored twice in the third period to erase a 2-0 deficit, only to watch Raanta give up the game-winning goal just 19 seconds after the Hurricanes tied it. This was the first regulation loss for the 32-year-old Finn (3-1-1), but Raanta's sub-.900 save percentage this season doesn't inspire confidence. |
None |
Dec. 2, 2021 |
Raanta is on track to start between the pipes in Thursday's home game versus the Senators, Cory Lavalette of the North State Journal reports. - Raanta was pretty shaky in his last start Friday against the Flyers, surrendering three goals on just 23 shots, but he still came away with a win thanks to fantastic goal support from his teammates. The 32-year-old goaltender will attempt to pick up his fourth win of the year in a highly favorable home matchup with an Ottawa team that's 1-7-1 on the road this season. |
None |
Nov. 26, 2021 |
Raanta will guard the road cage during Friday's matchup with the Flyers, Adam Kimelman of NHL.com reports. - Raanta was solid in his last start Monday against the Sharks, turning aside 25 of 27 shots, but he ultimately came away with an overtime loss due to insufficient goal support from his teammates. The 32-year-old netminder will try to get back in the win column in a road matchup with a Philadelphia team that's averaging 3.11 goals per game at home this year, 18th in the NHL. |
None |
Nov. 22, 2021 |
Raanta will get the starting nod for Monday's road clash with San Jose, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports. - Raanta will be making just his fourth appearance in the crease for the Canes this season after having posted a 2-0-0 record and 2.27 GAA in his prior three outings. The netminder is unlikely to see heavy usage this season, especially as long as starter Frederik Andersen continues to be in peak form. |
None |
Nov. 16, 2021 |
Raanta will guard the road cage during Tuesday's game versus Vegas, Sara Civian of The Athletic reports. - Raanta wasn't great in his lone start of the season Oct. 29 versus Chicago, surrendering three goals on just 26 shots, but he was still able to come away with a victory thanks to strong goal support from his teammates. The 32-year-old backstop will try to secure his second win of the year in a road matchup with a surging Golden Knights team that's won three straight contests. |
None |
Nov. 13, 2021 |
Raanta (concussion) isn't ready to return to the ice Saturday, Cory Lavalette of the North State Journal reports. - Third goalie Alex Lyon's starting Saturday indicates Raanta, who practiced Friday, needs more time to recover from his concussion. The 32-year-old will presumably be ready by Thursday, which is the next time Carolina might consider starting a goalie besides Frederik Andersen. |
None |
Nov. 12, 2021 |
Raanta had a concussion but was at practice Friday and is feeling better, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports. - What was initially labeled an upper-body injury turned out to be a concussion, which Raanta suffered last Saturday against the Panthers. The 32-year-old should still be considered day-to-day with a chance to return for Saturday's matchup against St. Louis. |
None |
Nov. 9, 2021 |
Raanta (upper body) will not suit up for Tuesday's game against Tampa Bay. - The recently called-up Alex Lyon will instead back up Frederik Andersen while Raanta recovers. A timetable for Raanta's return has not yet been established. |

Raanta (upper body) was sent home from practice Sunday and will be further evaluated in Raleigh, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports. - Alex Lyon is being called up from AHL Chicago, suggesting that Raanta will probably miss Tuesday's game in Tampa Bay, at a minimum. Raanta was helped off the ice following a collision Saturday against Florida. |
None |
Nov. 6, 2021 |
Raanta (upper body) was injured in a collision with the Panthers' Ryan Lomberg during Saturday's game, George Richards of Panthers Press Box reports. - Raanta needed help off the ice after the collision, which happened as he came out near the faceoff circle to play the puck. Injuries have been far too common a theme in the Finn's career, and this one came in just his second game this season after he relieved Frederik Andersen, who gave up four goals in the first period. An update on Raanta's status should surface prior to Tuesday's game against the Lightning. |
