EDGE Analysis

Tuesday's loss snapped a streak of four consecutive starts where Raanta allowed two goals or fewer. The 33-year-old netminder now has a .931 save percentage and a 2.09 GAA in the playoffs. Frederik Andersen (lower body) has resumed skating for the Hurricanes though it's unclear when he'll be ready for game action.

Raanta will guard the road goal during Tuesday's Game 4 versus the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

Raanta played well in Sunday's Game 3 against New York, stopping 30 of 32 shots, but he ultimately came away with a loss due to a lack of goal support from his teammates.

EDGE Analysis

The low-scoring theme of this second-round series persisted, but this time it was the Hurricanes limited to a single goal. Raanta has still allowed just three goals on 81 shots across the three contests -- he's been a big reason why the Canes own a 2-1 series lead. The 33-year-old Finn will likely be back between the pipes in Tuesday's Game 4 as Carolina will try again for its first road win in the postseason.

Raanta will get the starting nod for Sunday's road matchup with the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

Raanta played well during the Hurricanes' first-round series win over the Bruins, going 3-2-0 while posting an admirable 2.37 GAA and .927 save percentage. He'll try to secure his fourth win of the playoffs in a matchup with a Rangers team that averaged 4.00 goals per game during its seven-game, opening-round series victory over the Penguins.

Raanta made 27 saves Saturday in a 3-2 series-clinching win over the Bruins in their Eastern Conference First Round series.

EDGE Analysis

Jake DeBrusk beat him from the slot in the second to cut the Canes lead to 2-1 and David Pastrnak put a one-timer past him with 22 seconds left. Raanta has made Canes' fans say, 'Freddie who?' with his focused play in Round 1. Frederik Andersen (lower body) may return in Round 2 against either the Rangers or Pens, but if not Raanta has proven he is more than capable.

Raanta will start Game 7 on Saturday against visiting Boston.

EDGE Analysis

With Frederik Andersen (lower body) still sidelined, Raanta will make his sixth appearance of the series. The 33-year-old netminder has produced a tidy .926 save percentage and 2.46 GAA in Round 1, so he and the Hurricanes should be in a solid position to advance to Round 2 as home-ice favorites against the Bruins in Game 7.
