Rinne gave up three shots on 24 shots and was relieved by Juuse Saros after 40 minutes in Saturday's 4-2 loss to Detroit.

EDGE Analysis

Rinne badly overplayed Detroit's first goal and couldn't squeeze backhand shots on the other two, earning himself a spot on the bench for the final period. It was a disappointing performance for Rinne after he appeared to have found his game in his first four February appearances (.944 save percentage).

Rinne will patrol the home crease in Saturday's game versus the Red Wings, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Rinne has been playing better than Juuse Saros lately, so he'll stay in net for a second straight start. Over the last four games, the 38-year-old has registered a .944 save percentage and a 2-2-0 record. Meanwhile, the Red Wings are last in the league with 1.93 goals per game.

Rinne turned aside 24 shots Thursday in a 3-2 win over Detroit.

EDGE Analysis

Rinne didn't seem especially sharp on either Detroit goal, but he was good enough to earn the victory after dropping his previous two decisions. The 38-year-old has actually put together a nice stretch since the calendar flipped to February, registering a .944 save percentage in four appearances (three starts). Fantasy managers who have been impacted by COVID postponements might want to consider Rinne as a streaming option.

Rinne will start between the pipes for Thursday's home matchup with Detroit, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Rinne has been decent in a No. 2 role this season behind Juuse Saros, going 2-4-0 along with a 2.65 GAA and .909 save percentage. In Rinne's last two starts, he's been a hard-luck loser, stopping at least 30 shots in each game. The veteran will draw a great matchup against the worst offense in the league in terms of goals per game this season (1.93)

Rinne allowed two goals on 33 shots in a 4-1 loss to the Lightning on Monday. The last two goals were empty-netters.

EDGE Analysis

Rinne was solid in goal, but only Dante Fabbro could put a puck behind Curtis McElhinney at the other end of the rink. The 38-year-old Rinne slipped two 2-4-0 through seven appearances this season. He's started the Predators last two games and allowed just four goals on 69 shots in that span. The Finn has a 2.65 GAA and a .909 save percentage, and he's outplayed his younger countryman Juuse Saros to this point. Saros will likely tend the twine in Tuesday's rematch with the Lightning, but Rinne's done enough to earn an even split of the playing time.

Rinne will patrol the crease in Monday's home contest against the Lightning, Adam Vingan of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Rinne will make his second straight start after earning a win on Feb. 4 in relief of Juuse Saros. The veteran netminder has slowly turned around after his rough start and currently owns a 2.78 GAA and .902 save percentage. Of course, Monday will be a tough test against one of the league's best offenses.

Rinne made 34 saves in Friday's 2-1 loss to the Panthers.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran netminder recorded a season high in saves, but a lack of support from the Predators offense handed Rinne his third loss of the year. While his numbers have improved slightly from last season, he still sports a lackluster 2.78 GAA and .902 save percentage through six appearances, although Rinne's ratios so far are actually better than those of Juuse Saros (3.32 GAA, .893 SvP).

Rinne will patrol the crease in Friday's road contest against the Panthers, David Dwork of Local 10 Miami reports.

EDGE Analysis

Rinne earned a win against Florida on Thursday after stopping all 12 shots he faced in relief of Juuse Saros. For the season, the 38-year-old netminder owns an .885 save percentage and a 2.97 GAA. He'll try to repeat his success for a full 60 minutes against a Panthers squad that averages 3.71 goals per game, third in the NHL.

Rinne stopped all 12 shots he faced to pick up the win after replacing Juuse Saros in Thursday's 6-5 overtime victory over Florida.

EDGE Analysis

Saros allowed five goals on 24 shots through two periods, but Rinne stabilized the Predators' defense in the third period and overtime, allowing the team to dig out of a 5-3 hole. The veteran netminder improved his record to 2-2-0 despite poor rate stats, and he'll likely get the nod for the second leg of his team's back-to-back Friday in Florida.

Rinne made 29 saves in a 4-3 loss to Tampa Bay on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Remarkably, it was the first time Rinne had lost to Tampa Bay in regulation (9-1-2). He allowed four straight goals in the second, but remained in the blue paint. Rinne is no longer the elite 'tender he was in the early-to-mid 2000s. But he remains a reasonable option for fantasy managers, depending on the matchup.
