Raanta stopped 24 of 28 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Rangers. 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 likely get the start Thursday as the series moves back to Carolina tied 2-2.

Raanta will guard the road goal during Tuesday's Game 4 versus the Rangers. 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. The 33-year-old Finn will try to help the Hurricanes secure a commanding 3-1 series lead by shooting for his sixth win of the playoffs in a rematch with the same Rangers squad Tuesday.

Raanta stopped 30 of 32 shots in Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Rangers in Game 3. The third goal was an empty-netter. 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. Raanta was outstanding in the first two games of this series, allowing just one goal on 49 shots in a pair of victories. He's coming off a 21-save shutout in Game 2 on Friday. The veteran netminder went 0-2 while coughing up eight goals on 60 shots in two road games in Boston during the first round.

Raanta stopped 21 shots in Friday's 2-0 victory over the Rangers. Raanta picked up his first career postseason shutout as the Hurricanes claimed a 2-0 series lead. The 33-year-old netminder has allowed just one goal on 49 shots so far in the series, improving his save percentage to .939 in the playoffs. Raanta will look to continue his excellent run as the series moves to New York for Game 3 on Sunday.

Lafreniere runs into Raanta. Carolina to the PP. We’ll see if that’s good or not.
