Raanta stopped 40 of 43 shots in a 4-3 win over the Blues on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Raanta had a shutout going until Mike Hoffman scored at 16:45 of the third period. The Blues struck twice more after that, but Raanta held on long enough to get the win. The Finn has given up three goals in each of his two starts this season, both wins. The Coyotes were previously scheduled to continue their road trip with a back-to-back in Minnesota over the weekend, but due to the Wild's COVID-19 situation, those games were postponed. Instead, Raanta and the Coyotes will remain in St. Louis for two more contests Saturday and Monday. Expect Raanta and Darcy Kuemper to split the two newly rescheduled games.

Raanta will patrol the crease during Thursday's road matchup with the Blues, Arizona Coyotes Insider Craig Morgan reports.
EDGE Analysis
Raanta has been limited to one game this season due to an undisclosed issue. The 31-year-old Finn was pretty solid in his lone appearance, stopping 31 of 34 shots en route to a 5-3 win over the Sharks on Jan. 16. He'll attempt to remain unbeaten in a tough road matchup with a hot St. Louis squad that's won four straight games.

The Coyotes activated Raanta (undisclosed) off injured reserve Wednesday, per CapFriendly.
EDGE Analysis
Raanta was sidelined for the past two games with an undisclosed issue, but has been cleared to return ahead of Thursday's game against the Ducks. The 31-year-old has seen just one start this season, stopping 31 of 34 shots in a 5-3 win over the Sharks. Now healthy, expect Raanta to return to back-up duties behind Darcy Kuemper with Adin Hill relegating to the No. 3 option.

Raanta (undisclosed) won't be in the lineup against Anaheim on Tuesday, Arizona Coyotes Insider Craig Morgan reports.
EDGE Analysis
Previous reports indicated Raanta would be activated off injured reserve prior to Tuesday's tilt, but it appears the team will wait at least one more game to make that decision. Darcy Kuemper will get the start Tuesday while Adin Hill serves as the backup with Raanta still unavailable. Once cleared to play, Raanta should at least push Kuemper for playing time, though whether he can steal some starts away remains to be seen.

Raanta (undisclosed) will be activated off injured reserve ahead of Tuesday's game versus Anaheim, Arizona Coyotes Insider Craig Morgan reports.
EDGE Analysis
Raanta will miss Sunday's game versus Vegas due to his undisclosed issue, but he could be back between the pipes Tuesday against the Ducks. The 31-year-old backstop has made one start thus far this season, turning aside 31 of 34 shots en route to a 5-3 win over the Sharks last Saturday.

Raanta (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Friday, PuckPedia reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear why Raanta is on IR, but his destination will be backdated to Jan. 18, which means his next opportunity to play will be Tuesday against the Ducks. Adin Hill will serve as the primary backup for Darcy Kuemper for the time being.

Raanta won't suit up for Wednesday's game against the Golden Knights for rest purposes, Arizona Coyotes Insider Craig Morgan reports.

Raanta made 31 saves in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Two of San Jose's goals came on the power play, and the third glanced off Jakob Chychrun's skate in the slot and over Raanta's shoulder on a seemingly harmless play. The 31-year-old netminder is closing in on his 100th career appearance with Arizona, and he should continue delivering strong numbers alongside Darcy Kuemper as the team tries to keep both its goalies healthy during the compacted campaign.

Raanta will start in the home crease Saturday against the Sharks, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Darcy Kuemper got the nod last game and let up three goals on 35 shots in the shootout loss, and now Raanta will get his turn in the blue paint. This serves as further evidence that head coach Rick Tocchet will favor a goaltending tandem in the shortened season. Raanta was excellent in net last year, posting a .921 save percentage and a 15-14-3 record as the 1B in Arizona.

Raanta came off the bench to stop five of six shots Wednesday in a 7-1 loss to Colorado in Game 5.
EDGE Analysis
Arizona starter Darcy Kuemper was chased to the bench for the second straight game, giving up six goals on 30 shots through two periods. Enter Raanta, who gave up one goal in his second minutes of action. Raanta turned in a .921 save percentage in 33 regular-season appearances, but once again ran into injuries. Durability issues may prevent the 31-year-old from ever becoming a full-time lead goaltender.
