Raanta yielded five goals on 40 shots in Saturday's 6-2 loss to the Avalanche. The sixth goal was an empty-netter.

EDGE Analysis

Raanta had kept the Coyotes in it through two periods, as they trailed 2-1. He wasn't good enough in the third, leading to a lopsided loss. This was Raanta's first action since Feb. 13, as he missed two weeks with an upper-body injury. The Finnish netminder dipped to 2-1-1 with a 3.99 GAA and an .895 save percentage. Darcy Kuemper (lower body) isn't expected to be out long, so Raanta's time as the primary starter will likely be short.

EDGE Analysis

With Darcy Kuemper (lower body) out, Raanta will make his first start since Feb. 13, while Adin Hill will serve as the backup. Raanta has been decent this season with a 2-0-1 record and a .902 save percentage this season. However, the matchup against the Avalanche, who are led by Nathan MacKinnon and Cale Makar, is a daunting test for the 31-year-old Raanta.

EDGE Analysis

Darcy Kuemper is dealing with a lower-body injury, so Raanta could be between the pipes for Saturday's rematch with Colorado. He's gone 2-0-1 while posting a 3.63 GAA and a .902 save percentage through three appearances this season.

Raanta (upper body) isn't expected to be in the lineup for Wednesday's game against Anaheim, Arizona Coyotes Insider Craig Morgan reports.

EDGE Analysis

Although Raanta won't dress against the Ducks, he could be ready for Friday's clash with Colorado after logging a full practice Tuesday. The 31-year-old backstop has compiled a 2-0-1 record while posting a 3.63 GAA and a .902 save percentage in three appearances this season.

Raanta (upper body) was a full participant at Tuesday's practice, but his status for Wednesday's matchup versus the Ducks is uncertain, Arizona Coyotes Insider Craig Morgan reports.

EDGE Analysis

Even though Raanta's made significant progress and is on the brink of getting the green light, head coach Rick Tocchet stopped short of fully clearing the 31-year-old netminder. If he's forced to sit out Wednesday, Adin Hill likely will serve as Darcy Kuemper's backup.

Raanta (upper body) won't suit up for Monday's game versus the Ducks, Arizona Coyotes Insider Craig Morgan reports.

EDGE Analysis

Darcy Kuemper is expected to get the starting nod, while Adin Hill will serve as the backup. Raanta practiced Monday, but head coach Rick Tocchet doesn't have a clear timeline for Raanta's return to the lineup.

Raanta (upper body) won't suit up for Saturday's game versus the Kings, Alexander Kinkopf of the Coyotes' official website reports.

EDGE Analysis

Raanta (upper body) will not dress for Thursday's game versus the Kings, Alexander Kinkopf of the Coyotes' official website reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear how Raanta suffered the injury, but it will keep him out of action for at least one game. Darcy Kuemper is already confirmed for the start, while Adin Hill will serve as the backup. More should be known on Raanta's status prior to Saturday's game versus the Kings.

Raanta yielded five goals on 34 shots in Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Blues.

EDGE Analysis

Raanta had a 4-3 lead to protect in the third period after Dryden Hunt scored his first as a Coyote. The Finnish goalie couldn't hang on, as Jordan Kyrou netted an equalizer and Mike Hoffman won the game for the Blues in overtime. Raanta slipped to 2-0-1 with 11 goals allowed on 111 shots in three appearances this season. At best, Raanta may split time with Darcy Kuemper, but the latter has played better to this point in the season, making Raanta more of "1B" goalie.

Raanta will start in the home crease Saturday versus the Blues.

EDGE Analysis

Backup goalies will get the start on both sides of the ice, as Ville Husso will tend twine for the Blues. Raanta has started just two games this year, recording a .922 save percentage and notching wins over the Sharks and the Blues, who have averaged three goals per game against the Coyotes this season.
