EDGE Analysis

Rutta posted a season-low, minus-3 rating in Tuesday's game against the Canucks, but his apple in this latest contest helped him to a neutral rating on a night where opposing netminder David Rittich stood on his head. As a stay-at-home defender, Rutta has just eight points (three goals, five assists) through 41 games.
