This was the goaltender who pushed Henrik Lundqvist to the bench for four straight games midway through the 2016-17 season.
RALEIGH, N.C. — This was the goaltender who pushed Henrik Lundqvist to the bench for four straight games midway through the 2016-17 season, when such a thing had never ever been done before.
This was Antti Raanta, the 33-year-old Finn who has been a backup throughout almost all of his career, which included two seasons in New York, and who ascended to the No. 1 spot for Carolina when Freddie Andersen went down with a lower body injury on April 16. Raanta made a brilliant left-pad save on Ryan Strome cutting across the crease less than a minute later. He robbed Chytil from the right porch with a left-pad stretch with 5:30 to go in the period and then flashed the pad on Ryan Reaves’ drive from the slot with a minute to play. There was a big-time save on Kaapo Kakko off a move to the middle in the eighth minute of the second.
The Blueshirts had a first-period xGF rate of 77.24 percent They had a second-period rate of 68.31. They had a third-period rate of 31.06. Notice a trend?
